Goin' Someplace Special by Patricia C. McKissack

4.0

Another beautiful book from Pinkney, and this one a story of a girl going off on her own during Jim Crow. You can certainly feel the threat of navigating white oppression - I would definitely recommend this to parents and educators who want to teach their children their history. The good feelings you get at many points in huge book strike just the right note, in my opinion - not an easy feat when writing on a topic like this.
