Black Like Me by John Griffen is the easiest, without knowing how old you are.
I read it in 8th grade.
So, it was pretty easy to get through and easily understandable by an Eighth Grader.
And I agree with the other member.
Please read both of them.
Both are very different, not confusing at all, interesting, and VERY important information is given.

Sorry, I haven't read either of these books. But judging by the names "Black Like Me" seems the easiest and "The Color of Water" seems the most intriguing. Please keep in mind this is a guess based on titles alone... happy reading!

Black Like Me. I read it in high school 40 years ago and I still feel the benefits of having read it.

The color of water. Our school's 10th graders read it for ther summer reading book. Not as easy to read...lot of southern dialect but it got good raves!!!
But I think you should read both...

I loved Black Like Me. I read it when I was in the sixth grade. It was awesome.

yes I agree with the first guy, my dad read the book, a while back and he thought it was an excellent book and still raves about it.

'Color of Water' is the best one, 'Black Like Me' is the easiest (but still a very good one).
