Two Mrs.Gibosns
This book is about a girl who describes the 2
Mrs
. Gibson's she knows. One who is her Japanese mother and the other who is her African American grandmother. she writes about the memories of her grandmas big bear hugs and her mother light down comforter hugs. How she listened to her grandma's lively spirituals, and her mother's soft lullabies. She also remembers playing with her grandmother's fancy going to Sunday meetings and trying on her mother's favorite kimono. This is a great book because the author talks about 2 specials women in her life that loved her and took care of her through out her child hood.

Two Mrs. Gibsons
Two
Mrs
.
Gibsons
, is about a young girl who's mother is Japanese and whose grandmother is black. She constantly contrasts the two women with different cultures in the book. For example, she says that her mother has a soft and quiet voice, whereas her grandmother is loud and uses her voice for singing in church. Although they have many differences, they still love her and encourage her to explore the world. I would give this book two thumbs up, because it is wonderful. Anyone who reads it will enjoy it.
