Add to basketThis is a piece from the New York Times review in 1965: "As welcome as new books about integration are, good intentions are not enough. In "Easy Does It" Ester Wier's story of what happens when a Negro family moves to an all-white street in a northern suburb, the message is well-intentioned: nice people are nice, no matter what…their color. The trouble is that Mrs. Wier's people are not real people. She has assembled a cast of paper dolls, representing various shades of white prejudice with young Chip Woodman the only unbiased one in the lot. The adults are a sorry group, wavering between the violence of Jerk-eye Hacker and the easy-going, put-up-with-the-inevitable attitude of Officer Foran. Luckily for integration, the Negro family is perfect-college-educated, long-suffering, and related to Terrible Thomas, a famous baseball player with a long, low sports car, "the like of which had never been seen in the neighborhood." 128 pp. X-lib kept well with a brodart protective sleeve. W. T. Mars (illustrator).
