In vivid 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. Touching and powerful, each poem is both accessible and emotionally charged, each line a glimpse into a child's soul as she searches for her place in the world. Woodson's eloquent poetry also reflects the joy of finding her voice through writing stories, despite the fact that she struggled with reading as a child. Her love of stories inspired her and stayed with her, creating the first sparks of the gifted writer she was to become.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncludes 7 new poems, including Brown Girl Dreaming. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacqueline Woodson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1432850423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781432850425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thorndike Press Large Print\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLarge Print\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.3\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e168140 \/ Brown Girl Dreaming\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jacqueline Woodson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44055198466303,"sku":"9781432850425","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d2f45936-3264-4d5b-930d-0d452e2504fd.jpg?v=1685034351","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/brown-girl-dreaming-jacqueline-woodson-9781432850425","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
