A girl grapples with her self-image while caught between her parents and their new families in this timely and genuine (Publishers Weekly) story about divorce and racial identity from the award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of Out of My Mind, Sharon M. Draper.Eleven-year-old Isabellas parents are divorced, so she has to switch lives every week: One week shes Isabella with her dad, his girlfriend Anastasia, and her son Darren living in a fancy house where they are one of the only black families in the neighborhood. The next week shes Izzy with her mom and her boyfriend John-Mark in a small, not-so-fancy house that she loves. Because of this, Isabella has always felt pulled between two worlds. And now that her parents are divorced, it seems their fights are even worse, and theyre always about her. Isabella feels more stuck in the middle than ever. And she is beginning to realize that being split between Mom and Dad involves more than switching houses, switching nicknames, switching backpacks: its also about switching identities. Her dad is black, her mom is white, and strangers are always commenting on her lookscalling her exotic and unusual. She knows theyre really saying she doesnt look like her parents and are wondering about her race. And when her parents, who get engaged at the same time, get in their biggest fight ever, Isabella doesnt just feel divided, she feels ripped in two. What does it mean to be half white or half black? To half-belong to mom and half to dad? And if youre only seen as half of this and half of that, how can you ever feel whole?
