This is a simple short book that gives a glimpse into the life of Frannie and her family. It is very well written and has unique characters, although except for Frannie none are very fleshed out. Despite that I did love this book and will look out for others by this author. ( ) I read [b:Brown Girl Dreaming|20821284|Brown Girl Dreaming|Jacqueline Woodson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1424308405l/20821284._SY75_.jpg|39959105] a few years ago, but I hadn't read any of Woodson's prose novels. I loved this one! It was written very poetically, and dealt with a lot of important issues and questions. Good audiobook in terms of the narrator. The story is much more character-driven than plot-driven, though, so I probably would've liked it better if I'd read it with my eyes. (Since I started listening to more audiobooks, I've decided that action-packed stories are better to listen to.) Frannie is an everykid with a deaf brother, a devout Christian best friend, and super nice parents. She's growing up in the early 1970s in a racially divided town. A white boy joins her class at school and all the kids call him Jesus Boy. There's a debate over whether he could be the real Jesus. As I said, there really isn't much of a plot. I was curious about what the Jesus Boy's story was, and I was interested in Frannie's family, but what really makes the book stand out is great writing. A short and meditative story about faith, family, and hope. This book could be a good choice book for intermediate aged students. This book is about a young girl named Frannie and how she lives life with a brother who is deaf. She also has to navigate what it means to be nice to others and the importance of being kind. I would use this book in my classroom to start discussion about deafness and what stereotypes there may be about this disability. I would also use it to talk about the power of kindness. This book may be controversial because of the mention of Christianity and Jesus throughout the book. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
