Very engaging story for an 8 grader.
I read this book because it is my Step-Daughters summer reading requirement for her first year of High School, September 2014. I couldn't put it down. I lived through the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s and this book served as a vivid and powerful reminder that we should never forget to do what is right.
This young adult novel is very interesting to an older adult who lived through the times. Very well written and poignant.
I ordered the hardback book Sources of Light but received a new (damaged during mailing due to flimsy envelop) paperback marked - not for resale - editors copy. I was planning to give this hardback book as a gift. Vendor did provide full refund, but at that point it was too late to get the correct item from Amazon.com. ISBN mix-up was blamed for the incorrect order.
I have used this book for two years with my 7th grade students. This book does not disappoint! Males as well as females love this read. I first read this good as an Advanced Read Copy (Not for sale--before it was published). My students love to pick up on the nuances of the differences and the last minute edits that were made before it was published. What a great opportunity to discuss word choice, editing and publication. As a precursor this book, we read Spies of Mississippi by Rick Bowers. The paired reading is fantastic and a marriage made in heaven. Non-Fiction meets Historical Fiction. My students understand going into Sources of Light the whole Civil Rights Movement in the south and are engaged readers from day 1. McMullan has embedded literary devices on almost every page. I highly recommend you get a class set of this book as well as Spies of Mississippi. While you are at it, look into getting a copy of the DVD "For the Rights of All: Ending Jim Crow in Alaska"....we were 20 years ahead of the lower 48 and not yet even a state. There is also a pretty good iPad app to accompany the Spies of Mississippi and a documentary you can purchase from iTunes for $10. I will be using this book for a long time to come as it is not one that can be erased from the shelf.
Your clothes are hand-me-downs from your cousin and make you look odd when you go to school. Your father was killed in Vietnam and you've been told he was a hero. After he dies, you and your mother move from familiar Pittsburgh to Jackson, Mississippi where Mom will teach at a small college. This is our introduction to fourteen year old Sam. She tries to fit in at her new school, but it isn't long before she starts to realize that things in Jackson aren't anything like what she was used to in Pittsburgh. The pervasiveness of racism is something she initially tries to ignore, but not so her mother. When Mom starts dating Perry, another instructor at the college, their shared view of the wrongness of racism, coupled with Perry's encouragement of Sam's interest in photography (he gives her an older camera and teaches her how to develop her own pictures), force her to look at her new town with more mature eyes. Her life gets even more complicated when she starts liking Stone McLemore, older brother of the most popular girl in her freshman class. Stone's father is extremely racist and as the relationship between the two teens progresses, Stone has to look in the mirror more carefully that he might like. At the same time, Sam's mom and Perry are receiving verbal and physical threats because of their actions against racism. The book comes to a shattering climax that's extremely real. This is an excellent example of what historical fiction can be. It's a blend of recent history, family dynamics, young romance and coming of age. While it's been out for a while, I'd still encourage school and public libraries to add it because of its quality and historical accuracy.
Sources of Light by Margaret McMullan is a book that caught my eye at the library a few weeks ago. I was even more excited to see it make the Indie Bound Children's Book List for Summer 2010, giving me some reassurance that this would be a book I would enjoy.Well, not only did I enjoy Sources of Light, but I will be highly recommending it, and it has left me with a little bit of a let down, not knowing how I can find something next that will measure up.Set in 1962, Jackson, Mississippi, Sam and her mother are freshly transplanted there after her father's death in Vietnam. While Sam wants to fit in, her mother, who teaches art at the local college doesn't have any intention of blending in, and garners some attention when she speaks at a black institution. Sam and her mother start to receive threatening phone calls, their mailbox is set on fire, and several other warnings are sent to them to try and reign in their desire to help the civil rights movement. Perry, another professor at the college becomes a friend of theirs (eventually dating Sam's mom), and introduces Sam to photography. With her camera from Perry Sam is able to capture Mississippi at its best - and its worst. This is something that most people in Jackson aren't willing to accept or acknowledge at this point. Perry is also someone who wants to help blacks escape the racism they experience, and while he knows it's danger, he is unable to live his life as a bystander, allowing this to go on.Eventually Sam gives up on trying to fit in with the popular crowd, no longer caring what Mary Alice McLemore wears or what she says. Stone McLemore, Mary Alice's older brother, asks Sam to the school dance, and the two begin a romance impeded by the Klan activities of Stone's father.This book was absolutely perfect. From the bomb shelter that Mary Alice's family constructed to the Tang served at breakfast, to the space race, and mention of Kennedy's worries over Castro, Sources of Light is a flashback of America in 1962. McMullan captures what life in Jackson was like in the 60s and the small ways in which ordinary people helped create change. Perry's talent at photography helped communicate so much about life in Mississippi, showing in black and white how life continued.And this book broke my heart and gave me hope - all at the same time. I rarely re-read, but this is one I would happily read again, giving me a chance to find snippets I had not yet had time to think about and appreciate.
