Editorial Review: Product Description: The year is 1935. The young Logan family watches as their friend is charged with murder and tried by an all-white jury. "A profoundly affecting novel."--Publishers Weekly. Coretta Scott King Award. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Exciting but overall very boring bookThe beginning of the book was good because of the trial with TJ. After the end of the trial the book is very boring until Cousin Bud comes. When Suzella comes it gets exciting until she leaves. Stacey leaves and the children sit around dumbfounded,"Where could he be??" Their parents are the only proactive ones in the this sitution send telgrams, letters and Papa looks for Stacey by going to the sugar cane plantations. The story ends with no definate ending and making you annoyed. I think this book ... Read More Rating: - Well doneI read "Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry" as a child growing up in 70's suburbia. I loved the book and grew fond of the Logan family. It was only last year when I realized there were sequels. As a homeschooling parent I opted to read "Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry" to my 10 year old son this year.

The point of the story is made rather ineffectively, then, and the reader is left reading without emotion. ...signed, a 17 y\o without an account Rating:  - Let the Circle Be Unbroken In Let the Circle Be Unbroken, Cassie (the main character) changes from a child that knows little about segregation to a person that understands what life really is. Cassie goes through many conflicts that involve her or her family friends. Her first conflict was T.J. T.J. was a close friend but he has been accused of killing and stealing so the town wants him hanged. Second, Cassie meets her cousin, Suzella. Suzella thinks that she is white when she is both black and white. Then last of all Cassie's ... Read More Rating: - 5 stars book11/28/06 Let The Circle Be Unbroken This book was very exciting because it had big events in each chapter, like when the kid see their uncle for the first time. Most of the chapters end with a cliffhanger. For example at the end of chapter six, the Logan family kids find out that their uncle is married to a white woman. One of the surprises that held my interest was when Mr. Morrison came and stayed wit the Logans to help them on the farm. I liked the style of writing because ...
