Synopsis:
When Gayle gets into trouble with her boyfriend, her mother sends the street-smart 14-year-old—and her baby, José—down to Georgia, to live with Uncle Luther and his family. There’s nothing to do, nowhere to go, and no one around except kneesock-wearing, Jesus-praising cousin Cookie. Then Gayle meets Great, the family matriarch—and her stories of the past begin to change how Gayle sees her future. “Williams-Garcia has surpassed herself.…She has set these fictional characters… firmly in the real world while still allowing them to rise from the pages and into readers’ hearts and imaginations.” —The Horn Book, starred review
Review:
"...should be a 'must read' for both young adults and adults. It is a worthy reading because the well written book puts into action tough love that is used to help an irresponsible youth to become responsible through strong family ties, not outside social services."
Hazel Moore, Voya, April 1996
