Caroline's review on Maya Angelou: Journey of the Heart

Recently I have read Journey of the Heart by Jane Pettit. I have found it to be a wondorously enchanting novel about the life and hardships of the great poet Maya Angelou. It was extraordinary, reading the book was almost like watching a movie. The author was so descriptive that I could see little photographs in my head of what was happening at the time. In conclusion I would have to say that this is one of the greatest books that I have ever read.
