About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Ways to Build Dreams by Renée Watson, read by Sisi Aisha Johnson.

Newbery Honor and Coretta Scott King Award winner Renée Watson continues her bestselling young middle grade series starring Ryan Hart, a girl who is pure spirit and sunshine.

Middle school is just around the corner for Ryan Hart, which means it's time to start thinking about the future—and not just how to prank her brother, Ray!

During Black History Month, Ryan learns more about her ancestors and local Black pioneers, and their hopes for the future, for her generation. She wonders who she wants to be and what kind of person her family hopes she becomes. Drawing on the ambitions of those who came before her and her own goals, Ryan is determined to turn her dreams into reality.

Grow and shine and share with Ryan Hart in this series that brings ever more humor, more love, and more fun.

LOVE THIS!

I've listened to this countless times! This is a great book for girls 8-11 and is totally appropriate. Even if you aren't black like these characters you'll still relate to this story in one way or another.
