I am still working through stacks of African American literature in preparation for my multicultural literature course I am teaching this summer.

I am very much looking forward to reading The Girl Who Drank the Moon. I've checked it out from the library three times, I believe. But due to such high piles, I've always had to put it back. I love the cover and the synopsis and imagine it's lovely (especially based on all I've heard from other reviewers) so I hope to get a jump on that next month. Can't wait! Have a happy reading week!

ReplyDeleteI've read them all but When Harriet Met Sojourner, which looks delightful. I did love Emmanuel's Dream very much. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI loved The Girl Who Drank the Moon and all the others on your list that I have read. I still need to get to Is That Wise Pig? and When Harriet Met Sojourner.
ReplyDeleteI just read Jabari Jumps and really enjoyed it. I still am waiting for a review copy of The Girl Who Drank the Moon - hopefully I receive one soonest. :)
