content: Good Night, Mr. Tom is without question one of my favorite books. As a college student, I've read a lot of books. The story in this book is more powerful than most of the intricate symbolism in most classic works of literature.Even without having read it for years (but having read it half a dozen times), the story of Willie and Mr. Tom is still something I think of often. I can't speak highly enough of the book. Buy it, get it from the library, borrow it, READ IT!
