What does the title tell you about the book? Does it tell the truth?

The title of the books tells you a number of things. Most times titles are what bring s reader want to read a book. If the title isn't good maybe the illustrations are better. The title shows you what the book will be about and how the author might have written the book. Brown Girl Dreaming shows that it's about a girl dreaming. Kind of obvious but it also shows you something about the author. You realize that the author didn't name the book something simple. For example the life of Jaqueline Woodson. She wanted to make the title appealing to younger generations. Most kids don't like reading Nonfiction books but Woodson made it so it would be interesting to them. The book is pretty easy to understand and is in short chapters so you don't lose focus. The story still goes all together though even if they are separate verses/chapters. It set in a way that the book doesn't seem that long since the words are also bigger. I think the title is trying to tell us that change is coming. The cover also helps to explain the meaning of the title. The cover is of a girl reading a book and has bright colors. That also helps attract readers. If a book is dark-colored such as black young readers might not be caught into reading it but if it's bright your eyes sometimes automatically look at it. The title Brown Girl Dreaming also makes it seem less of an adult book and more of a young teen book. Kids dream and this book tell you that just in the title. Everyone wants to reach their dreams, the title also shows that just because you are brown doesn't mean you can't dream.
