Why read it?
1 author picked Family Reunion as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Written by a father and son duo, Family Reunion starts with a boy’s reluctance to join a family reunion and ends with him having a change of heart after bonding with a cross-generational group of relatives. Personally, the mini-scenarios throughout the book were so relatable, it made me wonder if the Richardsons were at one of my family reunions! Ashleigh Corrin’s bright cheerful illustrations seal the deal.
From Alliah's list on to celebrate Black summertime joy.
