'Momma set me on the jukebox.'

So begins the personal story of Denise (Sweetie) Wooten, set between a post-civil rights era New York City and a growing but stale rural Alabama. We are thrust in the midst of a family longing for normalcy, but instead struggling with illness and all that comes with it-denial, anger, misunderstanding, and love. As cultures clash, we see the family through a child's eyes and walk with her as she makes sense of war fought far away, but with effects close to home, and a tragedy that changes her life forever. More truth than not, Momma: Gone is a classic American story of overcoming life's misfortunes to find the bloom on the other side.

An look inside of losing your mother at am early age to cancer and how your father copes and moves on. It touches on grandmothers and their importance in your child's upbringing. How to keep watch over family members because they'll prey on your children and the resentment people will hold against you for trying to be happy. Great Read especially from a young child's mind frame to adulthood. Always be mindful of your surroundings. #Book19of2021 #bookworm #whatsnext
