Summary: Tamrah's review for Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry
Comment: A sad but true very good book, that will have you laughing and crying with the Logans, as they get through their hard times, good times and in-between times.
If you have never read this book you must get ready for in-your-face racism dealing with the Wallace's who can't seem to accept the pride the Logsn's get from their land , that all people are created equal, that the Civil War is over, and that all white people are like them, like the only colorblind one in the family Jeremy who is the youngest Wallace andis friends' with the Logan children, then finally T.J. with his foolishess dealing with the older Wallace boys R.W. and Melvin who he swears are his friends.
On a scale from 1to 10 I would rate it a 15 . This Newberry Award winning book will have you wondereing,"What are these peple thinking?" and "Why would someone do that?"
If you don't beleive me you will just have to read the book yourself. I personally think people all around thr world should read this book , I enjoyed this book and I think you will too.

Summary: I Loved Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry
Comment: Roll of thunder hear my cry was an excellent book. It is about a girl named Cassie and her family, the Logan's living during the 1930's having to fight the troubles of racism. Cassie is a young black girl that does not understand the way things are in the real world and how black people are treated. But as Cassie starts to go places other than her house and felid she discovers on her own that racism what really means.
This historical fiction book includes many characters such as Cassie, Stacy, Mama, Big ma, Papa, Mr. Morrison and others. I loved all of the characters but out of all of them Papa was my favorite. He is truly amazing. He takes care of his family, makes sure they are always safe, and he keeps up with his own life and does a very good job. Even if he has an injury he manages to keep up with all of his jobs.
Mildred D. Taylor really captured the dramatic truth about racism and the harsh reality of growing up in the 1930's. Miss Taylor's writing is amazing. My favorite thing about it was the way she made her characters seem like they where real. I actually felt like i was in the book experiencing all of the things the characters where going through.
I thought this book was amazing. I loved every part of it. I would most defiantly recommend this book to all people who like to read.

Summary: Excellent book!
Comment: I really love this book. It kept my attention through the whole thing. I loved the characters and I felt for them as they suffered. The characters were well formed and it helps show what it might be like to be a black family living in that era and what they had to put up with.
