Ro and Jules have such a sweet and genuine connection. Though the story follows the many beats of Romeo and Juliet , theres nothing tragic about this love story. Always great to see more queer rep in middle grade!)

Teaming up with celebrated artist Keith Henry Brown, Raymond Santana shows in vivid color how one can survive by pushing a message of hope. (POST-IT SAYS: Intense, infuriating (the injustice), and inspirational. Amazing artwork conveys the many emotions Santana feels before, during, and after his incarceration. A powerful and complex book.)
