Her sympathetic characters and their stories will make this thoughtful book especially good for classroom use." -Booklist "A powerful story." -Kirkus "This nuanced coming-of-age story by a debut author is deftly delivered, with engaging characters set against a richly contextualized backdrop of life for African Americans during the Jim Crow era. It's also an authentic work of historical a pivotal incident in the civil rights movement." -Horn Book "An unflinching and sensitively-told coming-of-age story from the perspective of a smart and thoughtful young girl in 1950s Mississippi." -SLJ "Midnight Without a Moon offers readers an unflinching bird's eye view of 1955 Mississippi. Young Rose Lee has one foot steeped in the segregated South and the other in the new world where Negroes and girls are expecting more, doing more, and willing to risk all to live lives of their own choosing. Bravo to Jackson, for a magnificent piece of writing!" -Sharon G.

She'll be an inspiration to every reader who meets her, as she has been to me." -Caroline Starr Rose, author of May B and Blue Birds -
