1. This book is an emotional and powerful portrayal of the Logan family's fight for survival and justice in a deeply segregated and racist society.
2. Mildred Taylor's writing style is gripping and showcases the courage and resilience of the black community during this time. Highly recommended for anyone interested in historical fiction, civil rights, and social justice.
