Kizzy Ann Stamps by Jeri Watts


Kizzy Ann Stamps is facing a daunting task, starting at the integrated school in the fall of 1963.  As Kizzy Ann looks forward to her future, her current teacher recommends that all the students write to the white teacher over the summer so their new teacher will get to know them.  What follows is a delightful correspondence between Kizzy Ann and Miss Anderson as Kizzy Ann explores the world around her in this new integrated society.

Teacher Notes:
I LOVED this book!  I’m not generally a lover of historical fiction books, but you can’t help but love Kizzy Ann who has a fiery spirit & a unique perspective on the integration of schools during the 60s.
