Black History Month Week 5

 


For us every month is Black History Month.  However, to highlight black history during October, every week in October we are going to blog about a school Library book which we consider important in the study of black history.  In the final week of October we are going to celebrate the wonderful Malorie Blackman.  Her most well know books are the Noughts and Crosses series.  


The series describes the lives of Sephy, a Cross, and Callum a Nought, against a background of prejudice and distrust, highlighted by violent terrorist activity by Noughts.  An impossible romance builds between Sephy and Callum, one which leads them both into terrible danger.


All we can say is the Noughts and Crosses series is a must read for everyone!
