  1. What happens when a privileged young white child journeys from her home in New England to a Southern world of racisim and poverty she never knew existed? No kid wanted to learn about life’s harsh realities firsthand the way Marie did, any more than the children in that Alabama neighborhood wanted to live them firsthand. But everything happens for a reason. And the reason, for Marie - was Ollie. Ollie’s gift is an emotionally rich and heart-warming personal retelling of a major life event that shaped a young girl’s worldview. It captures the child’s first impressions of racism and poverty, and uses dialect and speech to place the reader in the societies and era in which the story took place.
