Another powerful story in the Logan Family Saga and companion to Mildred D. Taylor's Newbery Award-winning Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. For David Logan, a time of distress means taking the higher road. During a drought, the Logan family shares their well water with their neighbors, black and white alike. But David'€™s brother Hammer finds it hard to share with Charlie Simms, who torments them because they are black. Hammer'€™s pride and Charlie'€™s meanness are a dangerous combination, and tensions between the boys build and build'€”until they explode. * '€œA compelling novel about prejudice and the saving power of human dignity."'€”School Library Journal, starred review From the Trade Paperback edition.
