This book is a touched story. In Mississippi in the discriminate years of the 1900's. This family, like many other families, is suffering from the unfair treatment from the whites. Cassie is a black girl who is completely innocent to the racism her mother and her father suffer everyday. It is also the story of Cassie, an independent girl who discovers over the course of an important year why having land of their own is so significant to her family. The racial tension and horrible events experienced by young Cassie, her family, and her neighbors cause Cassie to grow up and discover the reality of her surrounding. I recommend this book for everyone because the book is state a lot of information of racism.
