The Watsons Go to Birmingham - 1963 by Christopher Paul Curtis

3.0

Not bad, but overall a little more disjointed than expected. Most of the book had an easy feel and was comprised of a collection of stories about the titular family, some amusing and others a little forgettable. But the final two chapters delicately wove in an important piece of history that took place at this time and the events in them took on a lot more weight and meaning; I wish that the rest of the book had resonated as much as these did.
