Goin' Someplace Special by Patricia C. McKissack

4.0

Provides a glimpse into the life of an African-American child living through segregation. As she travels to 'Someplace Special,' Tricia Ann meets a variety of people, some who encourage and others who discourage. Author's note mentions that this story is somewhat autobiographical. Beautiful, upbeat watercolor illustrations mimic Tricia Ann's positive outlook.
