Jam and her best friend, Redemption, have grown up with this lesson all their life. But when Jam meets Pet, a creature made of horns and colors and claws, who emerges from one of her mother's paintings and a drop of Jam's blood, she must reconsider what she's been told. Pet has come to hunt a monster, and the shadow of something grim lurks in Redemption's house. Jam must fight not only to protect her best friend, but also to uncover the truth, and the answer to the question--How do you save the world from monsters if no one will admit they exist? Acclaimed novelist Akwaeke Emezi makes their riveting and timely young adult debut with a book that asks difficult questions about what choices you can make when the society around you is in denial. 521 8 $a 820L $b Lexile. 541 $d 20210315. 650 $a Transsexuals $v Young adult fiction. 650 4 $a Transgender fiction. 650 1 $a Artists $x Young Adult Fiction. 650 4 $a Lesbian fiction. 650 $a Selective mutism $v Young adult fiction. 650 $a Sign language $v Young adult fiction. 650 $a Young Adult fiction. 650 1 $a Family life $v Young Adult Fiction. 650 7 $a Best friends $v Young Adult Fiction. 650 7 $a Families $v Young Adult Fiction. 650 $a Transgender people $v Young adult fiction. 650 $a Monsters $v Young Adult Fiction. 650 $a Angels $v Young Adult Fiction. 655 7 $a LGBTQ YA. 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. 941 $a 8 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20240626010935.0 952 $l 3HSX245 $d 20231214011835.0 952 $l REPC017 $d 20230325010451.0 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20220824011701.0 952 $l 0YSX353 $d 20220315011606.0 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20210703010637.0 952 $l JKPC771 $d 20210603010531.0 952 $l VTPD454 $d 20210427011700.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=19D3D954A71E11EBB7E268FB48ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
