ROLL OF THUNDER, HEAR MY CRY

Recorded Books' commitment to producing outstanding classics for young people has never been more obvious than in this recording of one of the best books ever to win the Newbery Award. The inspiring story of the Logan family, as told by young Cassie, records the struggle of a black family in 1933 Mississippi to survive--with dignity--over-whelming threats of economic disaster and racial violence. Lynne Thigpen, one of the welcome new African-American narrators, is so convincing that it could be Cassie herself telling what happened. Also from Recorded Books: the sequel, Let The Circle Be Unbroken. J.C. Winner of AUDIOFILE Earphones Award ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JAN 95]
