Piecing Me Together Description
Piecing Me Together
"Timely and timeless." --Jacqueline Woodson"Important and deeply
moving." --John GreenAcclaimed author Renee Watson offers a
powerful story about a girl striving for success in a world that
too often seems like it's trying to break her. Jade believes she
must get out of her poor neighborhood if she's ever going to
succeed. Her mother tells her to take advantage of every
opportunity that comes her way., And Jade has: every day she rides
the bus away from her friends and to the private school where she
feels like an outsider, but where she has plenty of opportunities.
But some opportunities she doesn't really welcome, like an
invitation to join Women to Women, a mentorship program for
"at-risk" girls. Just because her mentor is black and graduated
from the same high school doesn't mean she understands where Jade
is coming from., She's tired of being singled out as someone who
needs help, someone people want to fix. Jade wants to speak, to
create, to express her joys and sorrows, her pain and her hope.
Maybe there are some things she could show other women about
understanding the world and finding ways to be real, to make a
difference., A 2017 New York Public Library Best Teen Book of the
YearA School Library Journal Best Book of 2017, Young Adult
