It's 1946 and Lymon, uprooted from his life in the Deep South and moved up North, needs that chance. Lymon's father is, for the time being, at Parchman Farm -- the Mississippi State Penitentiary -- and his mother, whom he doesn't remember all that much, has moved North. Fortunately, Lymon is being raised by his loving grandparents. Together, Lymon and his grandpops share a love of music, spending late summer nights playing the guitar. But Lymon's world as he knows it is about to dissolve. He will be sent on a journey to two Northern cities far from the country life he loves -- and the version of himself he knows. 521 1 $a Ages 8-12 650 0 $a Boys $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Music $v Juvenile fiction. 651 0 $a Mississippi $v Juvenile fiction. 651 0 $a Milwaukee (Wis.) $v Juvenile fiction. 651 0 $a Chicago (Ill.) $v Juvenile fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Cline-Ransome, Lesa. $t Finding Langston trilogy ; $v 2. 941 $a 1 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20220208012340.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F128ABC688AC11EC8370445E5CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
