Summary
Sharon Flake’s award-winning debut novel

Maleeka suffers every day from the taunts of the other kids in her class. If they’re not getting at her about her homemade clothes or her good grades, it’s about her dark, black skin.

When a new teacher, whose face is blotched with a startling white patch, starts at their school, Maleeka can see there is bound to be trouble for her too. But the new teacher’s attitude surprises Maleeka. Miss Saunders loves the skin she’s in. Can Maleeka learn to do the same?

'Funny and clever … will pull readers into a world too rarely represented in middle-grade fiction.'—Booklist

it was good I think the book was really inspiring it really spoke to me and I think that a lot of kids at school would appreciate listening to that or reading that and a good book to read at school so teachers let your kids that your students read them at school and still be a good book and I will teach the students to appreciate their selves and it was a really great book and I'm not sure if it was based on a true story but I know that it was a good but I didn't stop reading it in a day I read the whole thing in a day and it was really good books like 50 times but yeah also
