Johnson, Angela. (2003). The First Part Last. New York, NY: Simon & Schuster.
Two time Coretta Scott King Award Winner
Angela Johnson did a beautiful job in this fictional account of a young man who become a father too soon. The book is laid out in "then" and "now" chapters. Each chapter gives just a little more insight into the main character Bobby during the time before his daughter Feather was bore (then) and the time after Feather was born (now). Teens who love MTV's Sixteen and Pregnant will enjoy reading this novel. It's also a quick read which is great for reluctant readers. Great selection for young adults!
