Summary

This book is a way for children of families moving across country to keep in touch. As a mom, it hurt most to see my child’s first friend move away. It hurt to see the look on my son’s face when he asked to go see his friend, and I told him we could not. 



In here, the kids can journal back and forth about what is happening in each of their worlds. They can stay in touch and continue to learn about one another, not only about just each other but other parts of the world as well. 

My hope is that kids can grow together and form lifelong bonds throughout their military moves and be the support system for each other as they grow.

    Journey Home is the story of Tamara Woodson, who lives in the American West in the 1880s. She is smart and sassy, and has a mind of her own. Like many black families of that era following slavery, her family traveled west and founded their own town.   Tamara Woodson is at a turning point in her life. She begins a journey of self-discovery that reveals important connections to her ancestral past. Prompted by her ambitions and experiences, she prepares herself for an uncertain future.   At one point, Tamara’s fears are expressed in a dream that intertwines a Nigerian Yoruba folktale. She learns to interpret important symbols. At another, Tamara learns about the Apache Indian culture from a girl who is preparing for her own elaborate coming of age ceremony. Exposure to these two cultures helps Tamara validate the values and traditions of others as well as her own. As she matures, Tamara learns to let go of her own fears and to rely on her inner strength.  Journey Home is book one in the juvenile historical fiction series, “Passage to Womanhood.”
