A Little Known by Janice Daugharty

The Little KnownThe Little Known by Janice Daugharty
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was something I did not think that I would like but it was set in the late 50's and early 60's so the language is such.  The Little Known is about a young black boy everybody calls Knot, nobody knows his real name or at least it is never mentioned not even by the woman who pretended to find him in the garbage.

He wants nothing more than to be loved and to help those around him. He is a sum much greater than the parts that make him.  Nothing around him is what it is supposed to be.

This is one of those books that you have to read to the end. The story is complex and nothing is gonna come easy..
