Jacqueline Woodson is the 2018-2019 National Ambassador for Young People's Literature A New York Times Bestseller and National Book Award WinnerJacqueline Woodson, the acclaimed author of Another Brooklyn, tells the moving story of her childhood in mesmerizing verse. Raised in South Carolina and New York, Woodson always felt halfway home in each place. In vivid poems, she shares what it was like to grow up as an African American in the 1960s and 1970s, living with the remnants of Jim Crow and her growing awareness of the Civil Rights movement. Touching and powerful, each poem is both accessible and emotionally charged, each line a glimpse into a child's soul as she searches for her place in the world. Woodson's eloquent poetry also reflects the joy of finding her voice through writing stories, despite the fact that she struggled with reading as a child. Her love of stories inspired her and stayed with her, creating the first sparks of the gifted writer she was to become. A National Book Award Winner
A Newbery Honor Book
A Coretta Scott King Award Winner Praise for Jacqueline Woodson:
Ms. Woodson writes with a sure understanding of the thoughts of young people, offering a poetic, eloquent narrative that is not simply a story . . . but a mature exploration of grown-up issues and self-discovery."--The New York Times Book Review

Nice pants.
Color: Deep Gray, Size: 10
These are nice pants for a boot to wear to a formal event. I got these for my son to wear to a wedding. They fit him good and he said they were comfortable. The material seems decent for the price. He wore them one before out growing them but that is expected with kids.

Baggy hips
Color: Light Gray, Size: 6, Color: Light Gray, Size: 6
These gray dress pants don't fit perfectly but the size range it so wide that it's expected. My 5yr old is tall for his age but he's thin with a small waist. Pants made with adjustable waists are ideal if we get them long enoughlike a 6 or 7. There biggest flaw in these pants is that the sides (or thigh areas) are so baggy the form a weird pouch. Much like most pants heel probably outgrow the length before he can fill in the hip and waist areas.
Other than that, the color is a soft gray. The material is thin but it irons quickly. It's overall quality used fair so if your kid is average height and weight, this might fit perfectly.

Dressy without the struggle
Color: Deep Gray, Size: 7
These are really nice little dress pants for boys.
Perfect for church, weddings, or anything where they need to look a bit more put together. The big win for me… they’re not stiff. My kid didn’t fuss about wearing them at all, which says a lot.
They look clean and polished but still have some comfort to them, which is exactly what you want for this kind of thing.
They also seem pretty well made, nothing fancy but solid for the price.
Easy win if you need dress pants a kid will actually wear.
