This week we are continuing our exploration of novels in verse with a recent novel by the award winning Jacqueline Woodson. Before the Ever After uses powerful imagery and evokes a wide range of emotions as her main character deals with change and uncertainty. In this book Woodson tackles hard truths about the connection between brain disease and football. If you enjoy Kwame Alexander's work, we think Jacqueline Woodson is another author to add to your TBR list.
