Kekla Magoon continues to amaze me. I will be forever grateful that I stumbled across her book "The Rock and the River" while planning the Civil Rights Era book club for my advanced students. Not only did that book blow my mind, but reading that book caused me to add all of Magoon's other works to my to read list.

In this book, Magoon hooked my attention in the first paragraph; I could not put the book down. She creates engaging characters, realistic struggles, and does not shy away from dealing with tough things even if the main character cannot comprehend was is going on.

I highly recommend this book.
