Winner of the National Book Award for Young People’s
Literature, the Michael L. Printz Award, and the Pura Belpré
Award! Xiomara Batista feels unheard and unable to hide in her
Harlem neighborhood. Ever since her body grew into curves, she
has learned to let her fists and her fierceness do the talking.
But Xiomara has plenty she wants to say, and she pours all her
frustration and passion onto the pages of a leather notebook.
Because in the face of a world that may not want to hear her,
Xiomara refuses to be silent.
Characters: 39. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre: Young Adult.
