Why read it?

1 author picked The Story of My Anger as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Though my background couldn't be more different from that of this story's protagonist, Yuli, I could feel the pain of the injustices she experiences in my bones. She's a bright, tough, talented teen who cares deeply for those she loves and about everyone's right to be seen and read books that speak to their life experiences. The book details the very real consequences of racism, book-banning and censorship. A gorgeously written and vitally important book.
