Goin' someplace special / Patricia C. McKissack ; [illustrated by] Jerry Pinkney.
Tricia Ann experiences the humiliation of segregation as she ventures out into Nashville by herself in the 1950s, but bolstered by the love, respect, and pride of her grandmother and other elders, she continues on to reach "Someplace Special"--the public library where all are welcome.
