From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sad-faced Boy is a 1937 children's novel by Arna Wendell Bontemps and illustrated by Virginia Lee Burton.[1] It tells the adventures of three rural boys Slumber, his big brother Rags, and Willie Dozier who travel alone from Alabama to visit Harlem in New York.[2] Bontemps's book, although aimed at children, carried a heavy social warning, that life in the industrial north would still carry the challenges of oppression and prejudice of the South.[3][4]
