Kiko longs for a mother’s unconditional love and support: a mother who
is interested in her life, encourages her in her art, and believes what
she says about that bad thing that happened several years back.
Unfortunately, that’s not the kind of mother Kiko has. Just as the
situation at home is deteriorating, an old friend walks back into Kiko’s
life — one who may serve as a catalyst for change in many ways.
Appropriately,
for a book that is so much about artistic expression, the emotion of
this book is the best part. Readers who enjoy realistic YA books about
people from difficult circumstances growing and finding their place in
the world are the perfect audience for this story.
