I loved how Lina was able to see herself in books and learn to express herself through her art. The friends she made totally warmed my heart and I loved the school board meeting when people got up to defend the sweet book that her classmate’s mom found divisive.
I also loved how the author used her own experience coming to the US as the story for a side character (who was one of my favorite characters). So many important lessons in this book ❤️
