Sister

Eloise Greenfield

0/5 ( ratings)

When Doretha was nine, her father gave her an old notebook with empty pages. On the first page, Doretha wrote in black: "Me, age 9. My Doretha Book - Memories." Now Doretha is thirteen, and there are lots of pages filled up with words and colors, each page holding a special memory. Some are happy, like the day Doretha learns about her freedom-fighting, ex-slave ancestor. And some are sad - the death of her father, and the painful struggles of her older sister. As Doretha reads the book from start to finish, she realizes that these events are what have given her the courage and insight she needs to be herself.

Language: English

Pages: 96
