Synopsis

Good Morning East Harlem, by debut author, Deanna Larson is a nostalgic collection of vignettes about a young girl's unstable but happy upbringing in East Harlem. Deannie is an easy-going, reflective kid growing up in an East Harlem housing project in the 1960s. She loves her bubble gum, her two best friends Izzy and Nancy, and her sophisticated fourth-grade teacher, Miss Perlman. Her summers are spent enjoying ten cent piragua ices and splashing in open fire hydrant waters. Deannie's less than ideal home life is balanced out by the warm, open acceptance that she and her younger brother, Kenny, receive from her best friend's family next door, who provide a second home for them. But, despite the challenges Deannie encounters, most of her days spent on the concrete playgrounds of East Harlem, in school, and at home, are her truly “Good Morning” East Harlem days.
