"Nourishes the spirit and fills the soul." - Olugbemisola Rhuday-Perkovich, author of Operation Sisterhood"Touching and inspiring." - Lisa Moore Ramée, author of A Good Kind of Trouble"A taste of history with the thrills of mystery and brims with family secrets." - Alicia D. Williams, award-winning author of Genesis Begins Again Judy Blume meets Jacqueline Woodson in this powerful and sweetly emotional coming-of-age story about finding your place in the world, from the author of How High the Moon.This was supposed to be the best year ever for eleven-year-old Stevie Morrison. But instead, her life seems determined to turn itself upside down.First of all, her parents can''t stop fighting - and they decide to move the family to a totally new apartment, in a totally new part of town, which means a totally new middle school for Stevie. On top of that, her best friend, Jennifer, is acting weird. She won''t return Stevie''s phone calls, and apparently her new best friends are a bunch of mean girls.The final straw comes with the arrival of Stevie''s teenage cousin Naomi - sent down in disgrace from Boston (though no one will tell Stevie why). But with Naomi comes an exciting glimpse of a world Stevie hasn''t paid much attention to before: one of Cleopatra Jones movies, women''s liberation and an intriguing-sounding group called the Black Panthers.It might not be the year Stevie anticipated. But it will be the one that changes her life forever.Praise for How High the Moon:"Essential reading, full of voices that must be heard. One of the best stories I''ve read in a long while" - Emma Carroll, author of Letters from the Lighthouse "An impressive debut" - Mail on Sunday
