August, Sylvia, Angela, and Gigi shared confidences as they ambled their neighborhood streets, a place where the girls believed that they were amazingly beautiful, brilliantly talented, with a future that belonged to them. But beneath the hopeful promise there was another Brooklyn, a dangerous place where grown men reached for innocent girls in dark hallways, where mothers disappeared, where fathers found religion, and where madness was a mere sunset away. Woodson heartbreakingly illuminates the formative period when a child meets adulthood -- when precious innocence meets the all-too-real perils of growing up. -- $c from book jacket. 541 $d 20161229. 650 7 $a Sexually abused teenagers $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Bildungsromans. 650 7 $a Female friendship $x Fiction. 650 07 $a African American women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 651 0 $a Brooklyn (New York, N.Y) $v Fiction. 941 $a 8 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230203015634.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728015827.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20200114011216.0 952 $l LIPB815 $d 20190105124018.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006110408.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20170512010321.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20170325010911.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20170209011427.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B69CC41ACE5D11E6B169FBB9DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
