The book targets 7th- through 9th-grade students, but I enjoyed it immensely. Though his writing is spare, Chucalate is a virtuoso in his interpretation of everyday life. When he was awarded the PEN/O. Henry prize in 2007, author Ursula K. Le Guin wrote of Chuculate’s “calm, beautiful, unexplaining accuracy of description.” He does not overly dramatize his life despite challenges others might lament. He writes simply and from a place of love. I heard Chuculate say that from the shame and embarrassment of something his uncle said to his best friend, a Black boy, when they were in sixth grade sprang this book. That incident is described in the book. I cannot say enough about my veneration of Eddie Chuculate’s writing.
Thank you so very much to NetGalley, Scholastic Focus Publishing, and Eddie Chuculate for the ARC of this book.… (plus d'informations)
