Please let me know your opinions on any of these books I have on audio. I don’t know if they are worth keeping even though they are Newbery Award or Honor and what ages for the audio. I like more conservative titles. Please let me know of any issues to watch for. Thanks.
The Slave Dancer by Paula Fox
Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry by Mildred Taylor
The Watsons Go To Birmingham – 1963 by Curtis
Everything on a Waffle by Polly Horvath
Getting Near to Baby by Audrey Couloumbis
Dicey’s Song by Cynthia Voigt
Out of the Dust by Karen Hess
Crazy Lady by Conly
Not Newbery: Open Heart, Open Home by Karen Mains
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry is excellent but does deal with some tough issues.
I read Dicey’s Song when I was a kid and I think there may be some issues there. The mom abandons the kids and they have to make their way, on their own, to a distant and unknown relative. This one obviously deals with tough issues as well.
I haven’t read any of the others. Hopefully others can help with those!
