Wonderful book.
I purchased this book for school, we read this as a class and it was a very good book that kept you interested the entire time. It’s sure to keep you entertained until finished. Especially with having your mind image things, it’s incredible. The things you can learn from this book is amazing and I would recommend it to anyone.Ver másVer menos

Excellent fiction story addressing serious, real life issues
Excellent look at colorism and prejudice framed in a way that younger students can understand and identify with. Younger children being late elementary, early middle school age. It does not sugar coat or downplay real issues while still making it digestible and not overwhelming. The story is about two brothers and while the colorism aspect of two skin tones is clear throughout, the author also shows relatable sibling conflicts like athletic ability, grades, and connectivity with parents. A solid read for parents and their children of all races or for use in a middle school classroom.Ver másVer menos

Excellent book!
This book was so good. I have been reading my kids book to ensure they are age-appropriate. This is a book for all ages. Bought this as my son needs to be able to see himself as the character in books. Representation matters. This book hit the mark and beyond. It really is for all children and ethnicities to learn the impact that how we treat others really does matter. Words can impact us for a lifetime and we should be teaching kindness and inclusion.Ver másVer menos

Completely Engaging!
I thought this book was a beautifully crafted story that pulls you into the characters. The storytelling had my heart in it's hands throughout the book. It's a great novel to examine different types of relationships-familial, friends, academic, etc. It's also a great book for an age where children are exploring who they are and where they fit in the world. It will definitely be going into my classroom library for my student's enjoyment!Ver másVer menos

I loved this.
I really enjoy reading Parker-Rhodes books and the way she discusses the heavy topic of racism through the innocent lens of a child. As a fellow writer and avid reader, I admire her character progression and story telling abilities.

Your Library Needs This Book
Black Brother, Black Brother is one of the best middle grade novels that I have read in a long time. The book centers around two brothers. One who presents as white, and the other as black and their journey to compete in a fencing competition. I couldn’t put this book down and my brain couldn’t stop turning as I thought of all the conversations that could be started with this book. Go buy this book and read it. I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed. If you’re a teacher this would be a great addition to your library.Ver másVer menos

It starts the conversation with pre-teens/teens about race. Highly recommend
I ordered three books for my 12-year old son. I wanted to start the conversation about race and privilege but wasn’t sure how. We ordered three books and this was the first one. He loved it even though it was challenging, but he is beginning to acknowledge his perspective is vastly different, and that knowing that his friends and peers will experience circumstances differently than him is helping him understand what’s happening in our community. I highly recommend this book.Ver másVer menos

Excellent Book!
Black Brother, Black Brother is a well written book that speaks about systemic racism. It gives voice to teens who experience disenfranchisement and empowers them to find ways to overcome this very real struggle. The book can also encourage others who are outside looking in, to look inwards to question the role they play to perpetuate this problem. I highly recommend this book to everyone especially to teachers to include in their social justice curriculum.Ver másVer menos

Captivating
This story was captivating while educating the reader. It was a story about being black in a sea of white at school but it was also about shades of that blackness and Donte's desire to sometimes disappear from that visibility. Donte took a journey in this school through sport and the things learnt along the way for him and those around him completely had my attention. Such a stunning read for any teen.Ver másVer menos

Good novel for literature circles and novel studies for elementary and middle school students.
Accessible novel for students to engage with story structures, characterization, and literary devices. Obvious themes made explicitly apparent, and some implicitly (but mostly to adult readers like teachers or parents).
