SynopsisJacqueline Woodson is the 2018-2019 National Ambassador for Young People's Literature Clover's mom says it isn't safe to cross the fence that segregates their African-American side of town from the white side where Anna lives. But the two girls strike up a friendship, and get around the grown-ups' rules by sitting on top of the fence together. With the addition of a brand-new author's note, this special edition celebrates the tenth anniversary of this classic book. As always, Woodson moves readers with her lyrical narrative, and E. B. Lewis's amazing talent shines in his gorgeous watercolor illustrations.

  • LOVED IT

    I purchased this book as a gift for my grandson (first year 3rd grade teacher) for his classroom. He is making a library for his room. This book was wonderful. It very simply and beautifully conveys a message to our children that needs to be taught. The art work is lovely, and it is a story for all of us. :)
