Sounder
William H. Armstrong's Newbery Medal winner is now a major motion picture!
A young boy is growing up, and his family is poor and hungry. His father and their dog, Sounder, hunt each night but the food is scarce. When his father resorts to stealing food for his family, he is caught and sent to jail. The boy relies on his faith to bring his father home, and his desire to learn gives him hope for a better life. Set in the 19th-century South, Newbery Medal winner Sounder is a classic story about family, survival, and hope.
Only the unwise think that what has changed is dead.
Brilliant and heartbreaking!
