Ninth Ward

The title of this book is Ninth Ward and author is Jewell Parker Rhodes including Bayou Magic and Towers Falling. The book is about Lanesha and Mama Ya-Ya. Lanesha’s mom died when she gave birth. Lanesha grow up without mother.

Lanesha lived with mama ya-ya after her mother died. There was some ghost in mama ya-ya house and Lanesha talked to them. TaShon was classmate of Lanesha. He has a dog named Spot.

I did like the book because it was an emotional book. The book was written for people of all ages. Both men and women should read this book. You should read this book because it shows how hard to live without a family.
