The Year We Learned to Fly
Description
In a story shaped by family, friendship, and the ache of growing up, a young narrator looks back on a year that changes everything—when hope feels both fragile and urgent. As the community around them shifts and the future starts to feel uncertain, they find ways to keep moving forward, learning what it means to trust others and to believe in themselves. With lyrical, emotionally precise storytelling, Jacqueline Woodson explores themes of resilience, belonging, and the small, brave choices that help people rise. Blending memory and imagination, this coming-of-age tale captures the moment when “flying” becomes less about escape and more about finding your voice.
