Sharon M. Draper presents âstorytelling at its finestâ (School Library Journal, starred review) in this New York Times bestselling Depression-era novel about a young girl who must learn to be brave in the face of violent prejudice when the Ku Klux Klan reappears in her segregated southern town.
Stella lives in the segregated Southâin Bumblebee, North Carolina, to be exact about it. Some stores she can go into. Some stores she canât. Some folks are right pleasant. Others are a lot less so. To Stella, it sort of evens out, and heck, the Klan hasnât bothered them for years. But one late night, later than she should ever be up, much less wandering around outside, Stella and her little brother see something theyâre never supposed to see, something that is the first flicker of change to come, unwelcome change by any stretch of the imagination. As Stellaâs communityâher worldâis upended, she decides to fight fire with fire. And she learns that ashes donât necessarily signify an end.
