Book Description:
Melanin Brown is a girl far beyond her years who observes a brand new
student being bullied at her school because of his ethics. This causes her
to feel distressed, uncomfortable, and the treatment does not sit right with
her. As she is given guidance from her parents, friends, and teachers, she
also leans on her desire to treat people in the same manner in which she
would want to be treated. Melanin finds how to confront disparate difficult
situations while simultaneously navigating her own sense of truth and
justice.
Melanin is the friend we all wish was in our group when
we were in school. Kind, sincere, and smart, Melanin is a leader for our
times whose compassion knows no bounds. Open these pages and accompany
Melanin on her path to self-confidence!
