Summaries and Reviews
Summary
After her policeman father testifies against a fellow officer, Toswiah Green and her family are forced to change identities and move to a new city. Now Toswiah is Evie Thomas, wondering who she is and how she can make her future as bright as her past once was.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A powerfully moving novel from a three-time Newbery Honor-winning author
Evie Thomas is not who she used to be. Once she had a best friend, a happy home and a loving grandmother living nearby. Once her name was Toswiah.
Now, everything is different. Her family has been forced to move to a new place and change their identities. But that's not all that has changed. Her once lively father has become depressed and quiet. Her mother leaves teaching behind and clings to a new-found religion. Her only sister is making secret plans to leave.
And Evie, struggling to find her way in a new city where kids aren't friendly and the terrain is as unfamiliar as her name, wonders who she is.
Jacqueline Woodson weaves a fascinating portrait of a thoughtful young girl's coming of age in a world turned upside down
A National Book Award Finalist
