Review this book!
Set in 1935 in the midst of the Great Depression, this is the story of the Logan family. The children--Cassie, Stacey, Christopher-John, and Little Man--are beginning to experience life beyond the safe and loving circle of their family. As African Americans, all the Logans must deal with racism and watch, almost powerless, as their friend T.J. is charged with murder and tried by an all-white jury. Have Big Ma, Mama, and Papa Logan taught their children the pride and self respect they need to survive?
