When being yourself isnt good enough, who should you be?

Told in dual perspectives, this provocative and timely novel for middle-school readers by Paula Chase, the acclaimed author of So Done and Dough Boys, will resonate with fans of Jason Reynolds, Rebecca Stead, and Renée Watson.

Best friends Rasheeda and Monique are both good girls. For Sheeda, that means keeping her friends close and following her deeply religious and strict aunts every rule. For Mo, that means not making waves in the prestigious and mostly White ballet intensive shes been accepted to.

But what happens when Sheeda catches the eye of Mos older brother, and the invisible racial barriers to Mos success as a ballerina turn out to be not so invisible? What happens when you discover that being yourself isnt good enough? How do you fight back?

Paula Chase explores the complex and emotional issues that affect many young teens in this novel set in the same neighborhood as her acclaimed So Done and Dough Boys. Friendship, family, finding yourself, and standing your ground are the themes of this universal story that is perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds, Rebecca Stead, and Renée Watson.

A beautiful book of illustrated Bible stories, retold by the worlds best-loved cleric.

The book has a truly international flavour, with illustrators from around the world contributing their interpretations of the stories. The result is a glorious, and great value, package that will inspire a generation of children  and their carers.
