Description
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry is a powerful story of a girl growing up in the deep South during the 1930s. In a time of great hardship and division, Cassie learns about the importance of standing up for what she believes in, even if it means facing difficult challenges.
The Mississippi of the 1930s was a hard place for a black child to grow up in, but Cassie's father's determination to farm his own land is a source of strength and inspiration for her. As she navigates the complexities of her community, Cassie discovers the great differences that divide her people and the importance of fighting for a principle, even if it brings hardship.
