Brown girl dreaming / Jacqueline Woodson

Livre

Woodson, Jacqueline (1963-....)

Edité par Nancy Paulsen Books (Penguin Group). New York - 2014

In a vivid free verse, the author shares what it was like to grow up in the 1960s and 1970s in both the North and the South. Raised in South Carolina and later in Brooklyn, NY, Woodson often felt halfway home in each place, and describes the reality of living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awarness of the civil rights movements.
