pickThis book felt close to a masterpiece even with being unfinished. Not having an ending was okay for me; I actually like ambiguity and being able to imagine what might come next, and it felt like enough pieces had come together. Truly beautiful extension of Medicine Walk. Knowing there will never be more Wagamese books is a loss, however I'm grateful I've read out of publishing order and still have several I can go back to before I run out.
My birthday celebration this year is settling into my reading chair to immerse myself in the wonderful natural world created by Richard Wagamese in Starlight. Still have to stare at empty shelves in this room until Boxing Day before I can trust the paint enough to fill them, so trying to be patient. Have my husband working on the wooden mountain backdrop for the centre section though. This is the best birthday/Christmas present I ever received.
A moment in the story I felt might hit a bit close to home for the audience is when they talk about the character getting abused by a boyfriend she had. In this case it may be a sensitive book to read in a classroom and as a teacher will definitely have to be aware of your students family lives.
so-soThis book is a good choice to bring attention to the civil rights movement, for children. The book puts it into perspective though someone else's experience. In the book they discuss how hardship brought her light at the end of the tunnel, which is an example I think is great for children to hear about.
pick#AutumnPlease! Day 22: When the world goes #wicked, one can always choose brave. This is such a powerful narrative that I feel should be required reading in schools. It speaks of a mother‘s unwavering love, singular pursuit for truth and justice, and educating not only herself but her entire community in the process. My full review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-pLs
“I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be.“

pick⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐5 ⭐What an amazing and powerful story. Many may know the name of Emmet Till, but not many know the name of his mother: Mamie Till-Mobley. Emmet Till is a line in history, that most people will have heard of, but his mother was more than he ever got a chance to become. She was one of the Civil Rights leaders who set out to make our nation better for everyone. This book is written as a love poem to a remarkable woman.
