It is the story told in Maizon's perspective when she is accepted and receives a scholarship to the expensive boarding school. She leaves her grandmother and best friend, Margaret. The school, Blue Hill, is beautiful, however it is difficult for Maizon to adjust due to the fact that there are only five black students at the entire school. She faces discrimination and feels completely lonely at times while away at school. The book opens the eyes of readers to a completely different world. ( ) While I don't think this is one of Woodson's best works, it is work the time spent reading. This author is amazingly astute at dealing with the feelings and thoughts of young adults in difficult situations. Thirteen, living in Brooklyn, NY and secure in the love of her grandmother and her close friend, Maizon is quite confident. She is exceedingly smart and when she is offered a full academic scholarship at a prestigious private school in Connecticut, her grandmother strongly encourages her to spread her wings and attend. One of only four black girls, Maizon quickly learns that bigotry and prejudice does not only reside in the affluent white community, but some of the black students display their own ignorance. Once again, without over dramatizing the story, Woodson astutely guides the reader to an important lesson well learned. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
