Papa's Mark by Gwendolyn Battle-Lavert

Book Review by Isabel U. - 3rd grade

In this book Samuel, the father of Simms, votes for the first time.  This book takes place in 1870.  The father doesn't know how to write, so he practices every night signing his name.  The black people are scared about what will happen to them if they vote.  My favorite part of the book is when Simms gets caught spying on his father.  I would recommend this book for anyone who likes history.
