Saint Louis Armstrong Beach by Brenda Woods
Why You'll Like It: New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina. Boy & Dog story.
Granted, I know Marley Dias doesn't like reading about "white boys and dogs," but this one is about a black boy and his dog. I did not get to finish my biography, but I will just table it to next Black History Month when I'll vlog about all my books. Anyway, Brenda Woods writes adorable books. Saint is a spirited hero who is not going to leave behind his dog Shadow. I loved how Woods captures the city of New Orleans and the magic of family.
This ends Black History Month for me. This month has been one of my favorite of my adult years. I'm excited for next year as I have cool plans to talk about these books at length instead of wriiteeee about them.
