Coretta Scott by Ntozake Shange

3.0

Sometimes I wonder if there should be separate star systems for the various aspects of a book. For example, this book would get 5 for illustrations. They are beautiful. The writing/story on the other hand- while it might be beautiful or lyrical, there isn't enough of a message or enough information that I would want to read to to my students/kids with the intent of them learning something. If I shared this, it would be for the illustrations most likely. So how do you rate that? This is an example of a book for me that the stars just aren't enough...
