A dual winner of the Newbery Honour Book Award and Coretta Scott King Award for nonviolent social change, Piecing Me Together follows Jade, a young woman, who wants to make a difference and create a beautiful life for herself. Her mother is always encourageing her to seize opportunities that come her way, and as Jade does, she realises some opportunities are only stunting her growth as an individual, especially as an "at-risk" girl. Renée Watson's groundbreaking novel is a timeless tale of never giving up even when the going gets tough.
