The Sweetest Sound—a Kirkus Best Book/friendship and family selection 2017.

*Kirkus starred review: … Winston …creates a rich and winning first-person story about a deeply introverted black girl who nearly loses her gift because of her understandable but undermining fear.

Kirkus starred review: Winston does an excellent job highlighting the complex race issues that African-American children face. …Thought-provoking and smart and a great springboard for discussions on race and class. (Fiction. 10-13)
