Song Of The Sparrow

Song Of The Sparrow

By Lisa Ann Sandell

By far the best book that I have ever read. It was an emotional rollar coaster. I was over joyed, sad, and angered all at the same time. The way this book is written, it feels like your are actually in the book. I will never find a book that compares to this one. Well done Lisa Ann Sandell

Midnight Without a Moon

Midnight Without a Moon

By Linda Williams Jackson

This book is definitely a must-read. Rose Lee is a black girl who lives a pretty unfair life. Slaves are freed, but what is freedom if you can't vote without the fear of getting killed? Hallelujah (his real name isn't Hallelujah) and Rose try to figure this out during their struggle against racial discrimination. Blacks are pushing on the right to vote, but Rose's grandma Pearl, or ma, says otherwise. She says that we shouldn't meddle with that kinda stuff. The roof that Rose and her family live underneath is provided by a White owner who pays them so little for housekeeping and cotton-picking, so Ma Pearl doesn't want to be kicked off their land. But that isn't the only unfairness that Rose has to endure. She lives with unfairness everyday under her own roof! For one, her cousin, Queen (that is her real name), doesn't do squat around the house! Her complexion is too light, and musn't be out in sun darkening her skin, as Grandma Pearl says. Not only that, Rose and her brother were given to their grandma when their mom married off to a different family to take care of their kids. Rose feels as if her mom doesn't like her because she's so dark, she's a midnight without a moon. Dive into these pages as you feel the pains of Black's in the South. This book is amazing and cannot go being unread. There is a sequel called- A Sky Full Of Stars. You will like it a lot!

I read this book for a summer reading assignment and to my surprise it was very interesting. This story was about a little girl named Ling who went through many hardships with her mother and her father. She had to endure having a mysterious man named Comers Li show up and begin living with this family. Comers Li was a man seeming to have many faces, of being a friend and a foe. Ling and her mother were stunned to find that Long's father was being accused of being an anti revolutionary. Ling had to help care for her mother as well as herself even while she was being bullied at her school. Ling faced her fears and found what true strength means. Overall this book was great, very interesting and amazing read.
