Product Details

Praise

“This verse novel examines complex themes of identity, forgiveness, self-love, and self-actualization through writing that’s accessible to young readers. Nelson intentionally and deftly uses details to situate the novel with history, and she’s crafted an endearing, three-dimensional protagonist in Cooper, whose voice and authentic struggle to make sense of her experiences will resonate in a work that presents fertile ground for discussion. A complex yet accessible exploration of self-actualization, presented in full color.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Nelson presents an emotive glimpse into the civil rights era via Cooper’s careful internal monologue and nuanced characterization.”—Publishers Weekly
