Gr 6 Up-This skinny collective biography gives brief but informative sketches of eight notable writers: Maya Angelou, Gwendolyn Brooks, Nikki Giovanni, Lorraine Hansberry, Zora Neale Hurston, Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, and Phillis Wheatley. Coretta Scott King introduces the text. Readers are given a compact personal and professional background on these women. The limited space, however, prevents Rennert from offering an in-depth look at or a genuine feel for the personalities of these multitalented individuals, their struggles, and successes. A page listing ``Further Readings'' offers three or more titles about each of the writers. A black-and-white photo of each woman is included. The text is readable and provides a good overview of these literary figures.-Valerie Childress, J.W. Holloway Middle School, Whitehouse, TX
