Kin: Rooted in Hope by Carole Boston Weatherford

4.0

This beautifully illustrated novel in verse takes readers on an immersive ride through the author's quest to uncover her genealogy. Descended from the formerly enslaved Copper family, who were enslaved for generations by the wealthy Lloyds of Wye House, author Carole Boston Weatherford does an incredible job of weaving both real and imagined narratives together to paint an unforgettable portrait of her family history. A story as moving for adults as it is for its intended middle grade audience, Kin: Rooted in Hope is a must-buy for every library.
