Description
On Visiting Day, a young girl and her grandmother travel to see the girl’s father in prison, navigating the complicated emotions that come with love, distance, and uncertainty. Through their journey and the moments they share, the story explores what it means to stay connected when circumstances threaten to pull a family apart. With Jacqueline Woodson’s lyrical, emotionally precise storytelling, the book captures the quiet hopes and hard truths of life under incarceration—especially from a child’s perspective. It’s a moving meditation on family bonds, resilience, and the search for dignity in the face of stigma.
