A Gullah Gechee Love Song
I thoroughly enjoyed this work! It helped me to feel seen growing up speaking this language and hearing it. The corridoor goes all the way to South Florida not just Jacksonville. Enjoyed. Perfect for educators working with students in the corridor and for teaching outside of it. #Beenya

Great book on the Gullah Geechee history, culture, and language.
This was a great book for understanding the history of the Gullah Geechee culture and language. I finally got the chance to see where some of the language that my grandparents used originated and why it was created.

A Must Read!
Dr. Berry's book The Little Gullah Geechee Book is a must read for the entire family! Her book is an invitation for everyone into the culture of one of the most unique and authentic American cultures. Her knowledge and warm prose illuminate the broad strokes of the Gullah Geechee traditions, religious practices, food, and language. It is the perfect fist stop for any reader who is interested in learning about Gullah Geechee culture and how its influence has shaped modern America. Dr. Berry puts it perfectly: "Whether you are a tourist traveling through the low-country corridor, or a come ya who has made the low-country your new home, or a been ya who was born and raised under the moss of the of the beautiful oak trees, there is always something to learn about Gullah Geechee."

It’s very informative about the Gullah language and culture. I bought it to prepare for my upcoming trip to South Carolina. The book size could have been larger - little book guide!
