Interested in a Book Review

Featured Replies

Hello. My name is LaKesa Cox and I am interested in a book review for my young adult/teen novel, Mulatto Girl Aggie, 13: Name on the Ledger. The ISBN13 number is 978-1-61296-853-7. The publication date: April 12, 2017.

 

 Synopsis:

 

What happens when The Wizard of Oz meets 12 Years a Slave? You get Mulatto Girl Aggie, 13: Name on the Ledger.

 

This story takes you into the life of a precocious, spoiled and bratty 12-year-old named Aggie Lucas. Aggie is your typical 7th grader who loves her cell phone, social media and designer sneakers. Eager to celebrate her 13th birthday, Aggie is disappointed when her parents break their promise to her by not giving her the gift she really wanted. Mad at the world, Aggie goes to school and is sent to detention hall for disrespecting her teacher. Aggie accidentally falls and bumps her head, then wakes up in a dream where she is transported back to the year 1816 as a slave on a plantation in Goochland, Virginia. As a slave, Aggie is forced to adapt but not before learning some valuable and very harsh lessons in life.

 

 

Thank you.
