Oh wow, this was beautiful. I was right there in all of those memories with her.

A short, sweet and beautiful autobiography.

Jacqueline Woodson shares her growing up years, years that are filled with the small and large agonies and ecstasies of childhood, all told in beautiful poetry.

Over and over, Woodson shares how much she longs to grow up and be a writer.

Oh, Jacqueline, how happy I am that you did.

My review can't do this book justice. One that will stick with me for a long time. Can't wait to share this book with my girls.
