Jacqueline Woodson
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Jacqueline Woodson's first middle-grade novel since National Book Award winner Brown Girl Dreaming celebrates the healing that can occur when a group of students share their stories. It all starts when six kids have to meet for a weekly chat--by themselves, with no adults to listen in. There, in the room they soon dub the ARTT Room (short for "A Room to Talk"), they discover it's safe to talk about what's bothering them--everything from Esteban's father's deportation and Haley's father's incarceration to Amari's fears of racial profiling and Ashton's adjustment to his changing family fortunes. When the six are together, they can express the feelings and fears they have to hide from the rest of the world. And together, they can grow braver and more ready for the rest of their lives.

"This was the first book I actually read multiple times. When my mom ordered this book and another book I was more immersed into that book but as I started to read this and relate and she started to drag in appeal to emotion and I finished in a day. I had never been attached to a book before. I was elated when my mom ordered a second book from this author. She really knows how to make a person smile and feel all type of emotions. She is a queen. Please read this book."
