HTML:A New York Times Bestseller and National Book Award Winner Jacqueline Woodson, the acclaimed author of Red at the Bone, tells the moving story of her childhood in mesmerizing verse. Raised in South Carolina and New York, Woodson always felt halfway home in each place. In vivid poems, she shares what it was like to grow up as an African American in the 1960s and 1970s, living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awareness of the Civil Rights movement. Touching and powerful, each poem is both accessible and emotionally charged, each line a glimpse into a child??s soul as she searches for her place in the world. Woodson??s eloquent poetry also reflects the joy of finding her voice through writing stories, despite the fact that she struggled with reading as a child. Her love of stories inspired her and stayed with her, creating the first sparks of the gifted writer she was to become.

susanbooks: Autobiography of a Familly Photo is a prose novel and stands beautifully on its own. Read alongside Brown Girl Dreaming, the earlier book seems like the nightmare, R-rated version of the later one. Both are stunning.

Brown Girl Dreaming is a book written by Jacqueline Woodson about her life growing up as a young girl. She talks about her experiences living in both New York City and the South during the 1960s and 1970s, a time when there were many important events happening, like the Civil Rights Movement. Through poems, she tells us about her family, finding her voice as a writer, and figuring out who she is. Brown Girl Dreaming is suitable for readers aged 12 and older who enjoy stories about growing up, poetry, and learning about people's lives. Teachers can use this book to talk about history, identity, and how writing can help us understand ourselves and others. It's a great way to learn about important events in a personal and meaningful way.
This story is written by an author about herself verse as she grew up during the civil rights movement. Topics like racism, loss of family, and incarceration are talked about in an appropriate way for intermediate students to have conversations about. I would use this for students who are approaching middle school and are ready to read chapter books that discuss mature topics. I think this is a great option for students because it is written in verse which is fun and approachable.
This is the authors’ memoir written in verse as she grows up during the civil rights movement. This does a great job talking about heavy topics like racism, loss of family, and incarceration in a real but not extreme way. Love the way the author finds her strengths and weaknesses and finds a love for writing. I would use this in a book club format or as a whole class book as it is short enough in length but would be great for discussion. 5th grade and up. ( )
