Summary: Great
Comment: Through sets of chapters reverting from "then" to "now", Angela Johnson tells the story of Bobby and his baby Feather. Bobby is 16 and when his girlfriend Nia tells him she's pregnant, his world changes dramatically. Because of the unique way this single story is split into two time periods that meet at the end, you already know the ending (or so you think) but you don't know how events unfolded to get you there.
From sketches of Bobby's life before Feather is born to days when he is bone weary from caring for her in the absence of her mother, this book is excellent. The perspective of a single father raising a child is fascinating.

Summary: The First Part Last
Comment: The First Part Last, by Angela Johnson!I would give this book 4 stars. Its about a 16 year old urban boy by the name of Bobby, who is suddenly a single parent after the death of his baby mother Nia! Bobby then faces a hard choice of either giving his new baby (Feather) up for adoption or taking on the responibility of being a father to young Feather. Overall this book is great, I just wish it was longer! I read this 131 page book in about 2 1/2 hours! Trust me this book is worth buying!!Best of Luck with The first Part Last! And I hope I have helped you! (...)

Summary: Riveting
Comment: My daughter (6th grade) brought this book home from her school library, and while reading it made a couple comments to me regarding the book which piqued my interest. I picked it up one evening after she went to bed and read the entire book in one sitting. I would recommend this for mature young-adults. It is extremely well-written and contains, in my opinion, an exceptionally emotional ending.
