He had a kind heart and a warm smile. And he had a dream. \u003cbr\u003eLiving in the segregated South of the 1920's, where most people were sharecroppers. Uncle Jed had to travel all over the county to cut his customers' hair. He lived for the day when he could open his very own barbershop. But it was a long time, and many setbacks, from five-year-old Sarah Jean's emergency operation to the bank failures of the Great Depression, before the joyful day when Uncle Jed opened his shiny new shop -- and twirled a now grown-up Sarah Jean around in the barber chair. \u003cbr\u003eWith James Ransome's richly colored paintings brimming with life, this is a stirring story of dreams long deferred and finally realized.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon \u0026amp; Schuster Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780671769697\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.34h x 9.20w x 0.41d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Coretta Scott King Award - Honor Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/1993 pg. 69\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/1993 pg. 251\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/1993 pg. 105\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eALA Notable Children's Books\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1994 pg. 1351\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/1993 - Outstanding, Noteworthy In Style\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/02\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e7194 \/ Uncle Jed's Barbershop\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.8 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Margaree King Mitchell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36639808946332,"sku":"9780671769697","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_5769fca1-f553-4c3c-b2b0-3bb884715b4d.jpg?v=1603850647","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/uncle-jeds-barbershop-9780671769697","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
