by George M. Johnson
New memoir from George M. Johnson that celebrates Black boyhood and brotherhood in all its glory!
This is the story of George, Garrett, Rall, and Rasul -- four children raised by Nanny, their fiercely devoted grandmother. The boys hold each other close through early brushes with racism, memorable experiences at the family barbershop, and first loves and losses. And with Nanny at their center, they are never broken.
Complete with letters from the grandchildren to their beloved matriarch and a full color photo insert.
