Absolutely wonderful read. This was one of several books on my daughters summer reading list. I decided to read it, along with some of the others on the list. I like that this, along with a growing list of other authors, she is getting an exposure much earlier than I did to diverse perspectives and experiences. Being able to have terminology and definitions to help you understand your own or others experiences and feelings is something I didn't not have growing up.

If you think YA or pre-teen books are just for kids, they are not, you can and should pick them up - whether you have kids or not.
