Let The Circle Be Unbroken is the 1981 historical children's novel by Mildred D. Taylor. A sequel to Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry (1976), the book is set in Mississippi in 1935, and continues the saga of the African-American Logan family as they struggle to make a living sharecropping during the Great Depression.[1] Several trials and tribulations are faced by the family told from the perspective of the African-American experience, including issues of racism in the criminal justice system, interracial marriage, "passing", and poverty. Ultimately, the novel emphasizes themes of self-respect, hard work, and pride.[1] It won the Coretta Scott King Author Award in 1982.[2] A recording by Lynne Thigpen was named to the 1996 ALA Notable Children's Recordings list.[3]
