Description

An unforgettable New York Times bestseller from multi-award-winning Jacqueline Woodson, celebrating the friendships formed when a group of children create a safe harbour for each other.

Six children from different backgrounds meet for a weekly chat with no adults to listen in. This special time and place soon becomes a harbour - a safe place where they can express the feelings and fears that they have to hide from the rest of the world. From parents and privilege to racism and deportation, the kids give each other the strength to discuss these tough topics, grow braver and face the rest of their lives.

Award-winning Jacqueline Woodson weaves a beautifully written and powerful tale that leaves a long-lasting mark in readers' minds.
