Walter Dean Myers
By the groundbreaking author of the award-winning Monster-a visionary who influenced
and inspired a generation-this story take us back to the world of 145th Street: Short Stories to show
how love can be found, and thrive, in the most unlikely places.
Curtis finds love in Iraq as he struggles
to stay alive in a war he doesn’t want to fight, and Letha discovers her own
beauty in the love of her child. There is the good daughter who
realizes that there’s only one way to help her brother and her family. Other
stories center on the daily drama of the Curl-E-Que beauty shop, or capture
the slapstick side of passion.
