Book Description
The Newberry Medalist brings humor and heart to this story of a Civil War–era boy struggling to do right in the face of history’s cruelest evils. Twelve-year-old Charlie is down on his luck: His sharecropper father just died, and Cap’n Buck—the most fearsome man in Possum Moan, South Carolina—has come to collect a debt. Fearing for his life, Charlie strikes a deal with Cap’n Buck and agrees to track down some folks accused of stealing from the cap’n and his boss. It’s not too bad of a bargain for Charlie . . . until he comes face-to-face with the fugitives and discovers their true identities. Torn between his guilty conscience and his survival instinct, Charlie needs to figure out his next move—and soon. It’s only a matter of time before Cap’n Buck catches on. Praise for The Journey of Little Charlie A National Book Award Finalist “This is a compelling and ugly story for middle-grade readers told with genuine care. Little Charlie is a product of his Southern upbringing, yet in Curtis’s skillful hands he learns the world is not as he’d thought . . . Christopher Paul Curtis does it again.” —Historical Novel Society “A characteristically lively and complex addition to the historical fiction of the era from Curtis.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book Description
This book reveals the feelings of a young child who witnessed her parents' divorce with its ""landmark"" custody decision, resulting in a mother/daughter relationship that played havoc with both their lives. The story begins in1939 and tracks almost 60 years of family dysfunction that ended in a surprising way. The title Love Never Comes Late actually reprises the first words her mother said as she came out of her detox at age 87. The author started this book in the 1990's but tabled it because her mother was still alive. Folding the older text into this one, the author now provides more timely insights about the breakthrough that healed their relationship on the eve of her mother's death. As a child of divorce, the author offers a hopeful example for those emotionally damaged by divorce, abandonment and alcoholism. The book shows how grace, understanding and forgiveness can present another possibility that may seem unlikely or unattainable.
