One Crazy Summer

"This lively, illustrated adaptation of Rita Williams-Garcia’s award-winning 2010 novel will capture young readers’ imaginations and hearts. The story of three sisters who visit their mom in Oakland – far from their home in Brooklyn – offers a glimpse into one Black family’s life during the tumultuous summer of 1968. Sharee Miller’s vibrant illustrations and graphics help a new generation of kids imagine what life was like during the Civil Rights Era. (For ages 8 to 12)"

"I think no one should leave young adulthood without reading Rita Williams-Garcia's One Crazy Summer."
