A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith

4.0

I found this book after a trip to a little free library down the street from me. I had heard about it before but didn’t really know what it was about. From the moment I started reading it I fell in love with Betty Smith’s descriptions and way of writing. This book discusses difficult topics in the best way. What I love most is how so many of the quotes and themes within this story, that takes place over 100 years ago still applies today. It is a classic for a reason.
