Miracle's Boys

Nothing is like it used to be. If it were, Mama would still be alive. Papa wouldn't have died. Thirteen year old Lafayette's older brother, Charlie wouldn't have done time at a correctional facility. And oldest brother Ty'ree would have gone to college instead of having to work full time to support the three of them. If things were the same, Lafayette wouldn't be so full of questions, like why Mama had to die, and how they're all supposed to survive these times together when so much seems to be set against them.Woodson, Jacqueline is the author of 'Miracle's Boys', published 2004 under ISBN 9780807207895 and ISBN 0807207896.
