Her mother tells her to take advantage of every opportunity that comes her way. And Jade has: every day she rides the bus away from her friends and to the private school where she feels like an outsider, but where she has plenty of opportunities. But some \u003ci\u003eopportunities\u003c\/i\u003e she doesn't really welcome, like an invitation to join Women to Women, a mentorship program for \"at-risk\" girls. Just because her mentor is black and graduated from the same high school doesn't mean she understands where Jade is coming from. She's tired of being singled out as someone who needs help, someone people want to fix. Jade wants to speak, to create, to express her joys and sorrows, her pain and her hope. Maybe there are some things she could show other women about understanding the world and finding ways to be real, to make a difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Turtleback Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/05\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780606410816\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Coretta Scott King Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Newbery Medal - Honor Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e187729 \/ Piecing Me Together\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.5 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 7\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Renee Watson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42916948836533,"sku":"9780606410816","price":23.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ee8f6020-a918-415c-b1c9-067dba917e9f.jpg?v=1687274300","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/piecing-me-together-9780606410816","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
