( )An intense, more sober sequel to Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. Has some more mature references, making it better for an older audience, but it is a good story and a good perspective of the struggles of Black Americans in years past. The continuation of "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry", this one delves into some of the getting-older aspects of white-black interactions (white boys coming on to black girls; what happens when it's the other way around), as well as the growing pains of a young man who wants to be an adult contributor to his family's means. A wonderful book from my childhood. I would also recommend "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry." Follow up to "Roll of Thunder..." and not as good. Now that I'm living in the South, the current forms of racism has become even more apparent after reading both this and "Roll of Thunder..." Glad I read it. Still a keeper. no reviews | add a review
