I have just finished reading the series, and I keep finding references to a book called Logan, which said it was scheduled for 2004,, but cannot find the book. Is it, or going to be, completed soon? I love the series and the Logan saga and want to continue reading more.

How is Logan coming along? It’s 7 years past the anticipated date of release. Any idea when it will be done? We are anxiously awaiting its completion.

When I first read Roll Of Thunder Hear My Cry I fell in love with it, then I read Let The Circle Be Unbroken and loved it too. But could anybody tell me in what order all the books should be read in?? I’m really confused…..

I first found out about Taylor’s book Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry in the 8th grade because we were required to read it, and I love the book so much a lot. I love Mildred Taylor’s book. I must say im addicted. I constantly read Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry over and over again. I am impatiently waiting for her final novel .

I was introduced to Mildred Taylor’s books by my daughter when she was in grade 3 more than 10 years ago. She was very excited because she had an African Canadian teacher (the only one throughout elementary school) for the first time since kindergarten and he introduced the class to Mildred Taylor’s Song of the Trees.

Since then I have read all Mildred Taylor’s books from Song of the Trees to The Land and look forward to reading any others that she writes. As an African woman who was born and grew up in a country where I was not a member of the minority I have learned much about the African American experience from Ms Taylor’s books. I have signed up to receive e-mail when her next book is published.

I would like to get in contact with Ms Taylor hoping to do an interview for a radio program I host at CKLN 88.1 FM in Toronto, Canada.

How do I get in touch with Ms Taylor?

Hello Ms. Taylor

My name is Jessica and every since I was a little girl, I was in love with your books. They remind me of the love that my family shares and the bond that can never be broken between us. When reading your books I feel as if I have known these characters all my life. I admire your talent to write and how you were able to captivate the love and warmth that a black community shares, something that is not common today. I also marvel at the history that is told in all your books about the struggle of blacks, and despite their troubles they took comfort in God, in themselves, and still had good times.
Even though I’m barely adult, I’ll cherish yours books and will read them to my little brother and sisters, neices and newphews, and my children and their children. I want them to know how life was back then.
Ms. Taylor, I only have one question for you and I’m hoping that you will respond. I read that you were coming out with another book called Logan and if so when? Please write me back!Take care.

Much love,
Jessica
