Jacqueline Woodson is the 2018-2019 National Ambassador for Young People's Literature A New York Times Bestseller and National Book Award WinnerJacqueline Woodson, the acclaimed author of Another Brooklyn, tells the moving story of her childhood in mesmerizing verse. Raised in South Carolina and New York, Woodson always felt halfway home in each place. In vivid poems, she shares what it was like to grow up as an African American in the 1960s and 1970s, living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awareness of the Civil Rights movement. Touching and powerful, each poem is both accessible and emotionally charged, each line a glimpse into a child's soul as she searches for her place in the world. Woodson's eloquent poetry also reflects the joy of finding her voice through writing stories, despite the fact that she struggled with reading as a child. Her love of stories inspired her and stayed with her, creating the first sparks of the gifted writer she was to become. A National Book Award Winner
A Newbery Honor Book
A Coretta Scott King Award Winner Praise for Jacqueline Woodson:
Ms. Woodson writes with a sure understanding of the thoughts of young people, offering a poetic, eloquent narrative that is not simply a story . . . but a mature exploration of grown-up issues and self-discovery."--The New York Times Book Review

Leather purse
Color: Coffee
The purse is not to big or small. I like being able to readily carry it different was easily. The exterior back zip pocket is great for carrying a little cash and my most frequently used credit cards. My only complaint would be I'd like the interior open pockets to be a little deeper. I ordered the brown color. It looks and feels great.

Love this bag, wish it was even bigger!
Color: Sorrel
This is a nice squishy pebbled leather crossbody tote. I'm using it as a work bag BUT it won't fit a 16 inch laptop so if that's a consideration skip this one. It does fit a 10 inch iPad and Kindle, plus a compact umbrella, wallet, over ear headphones, full size body spray and lotion, big pack of gum, several lip products and dental floss, mini hand sanitizer, small brush, pens and a notebook... So basically my whole life fits in it aside from my laptop. It smells like leather, and I love that. The brown color has lots of variations so it looks like it has a patina already. I sprayed it with Apple Garde for waterproofing and it didn't affect the feel or color of the bag at all. This bag is really pretty and I get compliments on it daily. The zipper seems sturdy and never catches or gets stuck. It molds itself to my body like a softer leather should and I would say that it's absolutely worth the price. The strap is wide, sturdy, and comfortable too. There are multiple pockets on one inner side, a zippered middle compartment, and a zippered side compartment on the inside as well, along with an outer pocket so there's plenty of organization without having to buy an insert. I wish they had this available in an even bigger size to fit a standard laptop!

Expectations not met re. bag!
Color: Navy Blue
The seller was fantastic, as he/she accepted my return and refunded me immediately. Seller gets 5 stars.
Even thou this bag is a stunning Navy Blue, BEAUTIFUL stitching, beautiful zippers and liner, wrapped professionally with TLC, I could not stand the very strong smell. I don't know if the smell was due to the navy blue color/dye or not. I can't even describe the smell... besides that it's not leather.
I was gifted the same bag in "light brown" and that bag smells like leather; it's like you are in Rome shopping for the real thing! I love that bag as I can wear it crossbody, shoulder or hand held. Unfortunately, it too small for me.
So I thought, if I am buying bigger, let's do the dark blue. Was I wrong.
I really had high expectations for this bag. :0(
