Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings and the Florida Crackers by Sandra Wallus Sammons
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a wonderful telling of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings’ life in a simplistic, but very thorough, way.
The writing is very good and clearly geared toward young people. The book includes a glossary in the back and a focus of various words throughout the pages.
I liked the thoroughness of such a short biography. Nice to see the inclusion of Max Perkins and Zora Neale Hurston. Photographs add even more. Huge points given for including dates AND a chronological history.
Considering the age group this is aimed to, though anyone would learn alot from it….
Bottom line: i recommend the book. 10 of 10 points.
