This novel by Julius Lester was the winner of the 2006 Coretta Scott King Award. Based on historical fact, it tells of the largest slave auction ever held, and its aftermath. Most of the book is told in the form of a script using dialogue and stage directions. These chapters are interspersed with Interludes in which the character recalls and thinks about the events. In Day of Tears, Lester exposes the devastating reality of the slave experience. It is a riveting reading experience that will bring history to life for our 7th grade students. This novel will take students into the minds of the slaves and masters as we follow a young girl's journey from slavery to a life of freedom. The themes presented in this story will also allow students to engage in extension activities that include research projects, readers’ theater, role-playing, and various writing exercises.
