I recommend everyone to read the book Roll Of Thunder, Hear My Cry. This book is an excellent way for kids to learn about the Great Depression and the events and pressure people had to go through. While reading this book, you are put into the eyes of an African American family and it describes the conflicts they faced. Within seconds, you are swept back in time, reliving the Great Depression. Without doubt, this book has been one of the most exciting, thrilling, touching, and clever books I have ever read.
