About this product

Product Information

Winner of the Newbery Medal A New York Times Book Review Best of Children's Books A National Book Award Nominee Why is the land so important to Cassie's family? It takes the events of one turbulent year--the year of the night riders and the burnings, the year a white girl humiliates Cassie in public simply because she's black--to show Cassie that having a place of their own is the Logan family's lifeblood. It is the land that gives the Logans their courage and pride--no matter how others may degrade them, the Logans possess something no one can take away. "Taylor . . . writes not with rancor or bitterness of indignities, but with pride, strength, and respect for humanity."-- The New York Times Book Review

"The vivid story of a black family whose warm ties to each other and their land give them strength to defy rural Southern racism during the Depression. . . . Entirely through its own internal development, the novel shows the rich inner rewards of black pride, love, and independence despite the certainty of outer defeat." - Booklist (starred review) "The strong, clear-headed Logan family . . . are drawn with quiet affection and their actions tempered with a keen sense of human fallibility."-pointer, Kirkus Reviews "The events and setting of the powerful novel are presented with such verisimilitude and the characters are so carefully drawn that one might assume the book to be autobiographical, if the author were not so young."- The Horn Book, "The vivid story of a black family whose warm ties to each other and their land give them strength to defy rural Southern racism during the Depression. . . .

5 out of 5 stars

A new classic for adolescents
Mildred Taylor is a fabulous author, and this is the first of a great series. The subsequent novels, Let the Circle Be Unbroken and The Road to Memphis are both good, but nothing touches this masterpiece. In it, the Logan family struggle as sharecroppers in the 1930s and face discrimination and racism as an African-American family. The book has become a standard in most seventh grade classrooms across the United States, and with good reason. It's an eloquent, heartwrenching telling of a family's struggles told from the perspective of the CHILDREN. One of the more memorable scenes in the book involves a schoolbus of white children laughing as mud splashes across the Logans. Something about this strikes a chord with kids; they can relate to the bullying attitude that goes along with this kind of racism. It's reasons like this that make the book loved across so many different races--and understood by them as well.Read full review

Excellent Read!
Mildred Taylor is a wonderful storyteller. She puts you in the shoes of a black family in the early thirties. Her description of the Logan family and the community both black and white are riveting. You actually felt you were in the shoes of a repressed, persecuted, fearful black still living under white domination in the South YEARS after slavery was outlawed. My son read this book as a seventh grader and encouraged me to read it. I cried at the percussion of blacks under some whites. One family, the Logans, landowners stood up to the white persecutors and the suffering of the black family under some of the whites was heartbreaking. I recommend this book to young readers and adults alike. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I promise you'll find this book well worth reading no matter your age!Read full review
