Woodson, Jacqueline Poetry
Raised in South Carolina and New York, Woodson always felt halfway home in each place. In poems, she shares what it was like to grow up as an African American in the 1960s and 1970s, living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awareness of the Civil Rights movement.

From the publisher:
Entre los 100 mejores libros juveniles de todos los tiempos de acuerdo con TIMES 2020 Ganador del Premio Nacional del Libro Ganador del Premio Coretta Scott King Newbery Honor Book Robert F. Sibert Informational Honor Book Que significa crecer en dos lugares y no pertenecer completamente a ninguno? Jacqueline Woodson crecio entre Carolina del Sur y Nueva York y siempre se sintio a medias en ambos. Estos poemas, conmovedores y poderosos, lo reflejan; asi como reflejan la experiencia de ser una nina afroamericana en las decadas de 1960 y 1970, de una infancia vivida entre los residuos de las leyes de Jim Crow, de su aprendizaje constante sobre el movimiento de derechos civiles. Cada verso es una mirada al alma de alguien que, desde muy pequena, busca su lugar en el mundo. Tal vez lo encontro en su propia voz al escribir. La elocuente poesia de Woodson es tambien una celebracion de la escritura pues, a pesar de que tuvo dificultades con la lectura cuando era nina, su amor por las historias inspiro las primeras chispas de la talentosa escritora que es hoy. Este libro es resultado de eso. Es el universo de una nina morena que, contra todo y contra todos, se atrevio a sonar.
