Audioraamat: Stella by Starlight

Growing up in the segregated South where they accept the disparities in how they are treated, Stella and her little brother witness a terrible event that compels them to fight back and trigger fundamental changes. By the Coretta Scott King Award-winning author of Out of My Mind. Simultaneous. When the Ku Klux Klans unwelcome reappearance rattles Stellas segregated southern town, bravery battles prejudice in this Depression-era tour de force from Sharon Draper, the New York Times bestselling author of Out of My Mind.Stella lives in the segregated South--in Bumblebee, North Carolina, to be exact about it. Some stores she can go into. Some stores she cant. Some folks are right pleasant. Others are a lot less so. To Stella, it sort of evens out, and heck, the Klan hasnt bothered them for years. But one late night, later than she should ever be up, much less wandering around outside, Stella and her little brother see something theyre never supposed to see, something that is the first flicker of change to come, unwelcome change by any stretch of the imagination. As Stellas community--her world--is upended, she decides to fight fire with fire. And she learns that ashes dont necessarily signify an end. - See more at: http://books.simonandschuster.com/Stella-by-Starlight/Sharon-M-Draper/9781442494978#sthash.lFIAoeyZ.dpuf
