Helpful Score: 3
This is a very short offering with a powerful message. It begins with the simple act of a young girl, that brings together an inner-city community. The story is told by each of those affected, and crosses lines of age, color, gender, class, and culture.
I found myself frustrated, at times, when each of the tellers would end their short tail, when, clearly, there was much more to tell. I wanted to get to know them better. But they told only enough for me to understand their reasons for being involved in this one piece of their life.
I hope other readers find this book inspiring. As for me, I have some seeds I want to plant right here in my own neighborhood :o)
