I vote Yes! Also highly recommend the 1945 film, directed by Elia Kazan.

I think I’ve seen the movie, it’s been a long time though!

Every time I see this book mentioned, I think of the old cartoon where the dog sees the book and runs off (presumably to Brooklyn). Was it Bugs or Tim and Jerry? i can't remember which if it was even either of them.

reply

kteewriter.bsky.social•100 days ago

TOM and Jerry, not Tim. I don't know who Tim is.

Black and Blue, by Anna Quindlen. Read it over 20 years ago and it has stuck with me.

reply

jdebaise.bsky.social•103 days ago

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn! My mother used to say this was the story of her childhood. But I loved the book as well. Something about Francie Nolan just resonated with me. I haven't even thought about that book in years. I need to go find my copy ...

I read this in middle school and it had a major impact on me at a younger-ish age. So glad my teacher introduced this one to me via school because I would not have read it on my own. Sometimes a common English Lit 'canon' isn't a bad thing.
