NAACP Image Award winner and ALA Notable, this luminous, celebrated novel in verse is now in paperback.
Serafina made a secret promise
to go to school and learn to read
so she can become a doctor
with her best friend, Julie Marie.
But following her dream isn't easy-
endless chores, little money
and stomach-rumbling hunger
all test her resolve.
When an earthquake hits
and separates Serafina
from friends and family,
she encounters her biggest test of all.
Serafina made a secret promise.
Will she survive to keep it?
