Overview

Winner of the Newbery Medal, this remarkably moving novel has impressed the hearts and minds of millions of readers.

Set in Mississippi at the height of the Depression, this is the story of one family's struggle to maintain their integrity, pride, and independence in the face of racism and social injustice. And it is also Cassie's story--Cassie Logan, an independent girl who discovers over the course of an important year why having land of their own is so crucial to the Logan family, even as she learns to draw strength from her own sense of dignity and self-respect.

* " A] vivid story.... Entirely through its own internal development, the novel shows the rich inner rewards of black pride, love, and independence."--Booklist, starred review

  • "Roll of Thunder, Hear my cry"

    Lydia W. - 5 years ago

    I think that "Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry, " is a very good book. It opens onto the life of a small negro family and guides you through their trials, joys, adventures, and experiences. It helps the reader to know more about their lives back then. While some pretty suspenseful parts, it is a very good read. :) #springpicks

    This book was a serious eye opener. My mother said the same thing about this book. #requiredreading
