Boston was nothing like South Carolina. Up there, colored folks could go anywhere they wanted. Folks didn''t wait for church to dress in their fancy clothes. Fancy was just life. Mama was a city girl . . . and now I was going to be one too.
It''s 1944, and in a small, Southern, segregated town, eleven-year-old Ella spends her summers running wild with her cousins and friends.
But life isn''t always so sunny.
The deep racial tension that simmers beneath their town''s peaceful facade never quite goes away, and Ella misses her mama - a beautiful jazz singer, who lives in Boston.
So when an invitation arrives to come to Boston for a visit Ella is ecstatic - and the trip proves life-changing in more ways than one. For the first time, Ella sees what life outside of segregation is like, and begins to dream of a very different future.
But her happiness is shattered when she returns home to the news that her classmate has been arrested for the murder of two white girls - and nothing will ever be the same again.
A beautifully written and deeply moving story about finding and fighting for your place in the world.
