If You Come Softly

If You Come Softly by Jacqueline Woodson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I cannot believe this book was written in 1998 - it is so relevant and applicable to what is happening in our country right now. I wish I was still teaching so that I could add it to our reading list. It started a little slow for me, but in true Woodson fashion, had such a strong finish that I was left wishing I had read it so much sooner and wishing I could put it in the hands of readers, young and old. Woodson truly is a gifted writer. I love her.

Happy reading--
