Addie Ann, a young black girl just starting the seventh grade, lives in the segregated discrimination of Kuckachoo, Mississippi during the Civil Rights Movement, 1963. She lives in a small, cramped house with her brother, Elias, her mother, and her Uncle Bump in the Negro side of town. Her father has supposedly died of pneumonia before she was born, and it has been, "stay away from whites but do what they tell you" since. Now, after a heinous, misunderstood "crime", her brother has run off, and her uncle has been accused of vandalism.

I like it I,m at the part where it's summer 1863

You leave home in a light coat to walk a half an hour to your rural school. Suddenly as it is time to walk back home at the end of the day, a blizzard hits, snow begins to blow, and the temperature drops to well below freezing. Could you survive when hundreds of other children didn't?

i recommend this for quite a mature reader as some parts are quite vivid and ....inappropriate...but the pieces fit together so perfectly....
