I believe that the theme of this book is hard working because the black people are lower class and need to work to make money to feed their families. Peggy and Roscoe both have jobs that are unstable and work so hard to keep their jobs.

Theme - Hard working

Recommendation

Father was born in Michigan, in a small village called Flint. He is very proud that he was born there. Father is very tall, handsome and intelligent. He works in a very hot room as a janitor. His job is very unstable, and he needs to work hard so they don't fire him. It dosent state in the book how father looks but I assume he has a very short hair and dark skin.

I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about black history. It is a great book and touches your heart. You feel like you are in Deza's shoes. It is intresting how it is based on history, and there was a time that black and white people were segragated.

Father - Roscoe Malone

Plot Summary

In the Mighty Miss Malone Deza and her family had to face very tough challenges. Brother Jimmie stole a half eaten apple pie. Her dad lost his job. He went to Chicago to look for a job, but never wrote back to them. Her family was going through some very hard times. They had to learn how to live in a cardboard camps because they were running low on money. the family started to spread apart, but soon enough they came back together. This shows that even through the Malone family had some hard times they found a way to reunite with their family. This story took place during the great depression.

Deza - The main character

Deza is the main character in The Mighty Miss Malone. The book is told from her perspective. She is very intelligent and loves school. She is writing a essay for school and she got the second best essay in the class and she usually gets the first best. Her best friend Clarice Ann Johnson got first place. Even though Deza is the younger sister she is responsible like an older sister. She has black short dreadlocks and dark skin.

Mother - Margaret Sutphen Malone

Mother is called “Peggy” in the book. She was born in Gary, India. She is said to be beautiful and very intelligent. Peggy works for the Carsdale family. She is very lucky to have that job because the patriarch in the Carsdale family is the president of the Gary Citizens bank. She doesn't like when people are mean to Jimmie for no reason. The book dosent state how she looks, but I assume she has short black hair and dark skin. She wants her husband to have a stable job, Jimmie to be happy, and for Deza to graduate college. She holds the family together, she is like the glue.
