Description
"Where are you really from?" is a question every brown girl in a white-washed town is familiar with, and one that Lucie has never been able to answer. All she knows is that her mother is white, she's never met her father, and she looks nothing like the rest of her family. She can’t even talk about it because everyone says it shouldn’t matter!
Well, it matters to Lucie and—with her new friend Nav, who knows exactly who he is—she’s determined to find some answers. There's only one way she can get them: she has to take a DNA test.
Inspired by the author's personal journey in uncovering her own ethnic heritage, Looking for Lucie raises important discussions around the morals and challenges of DNA testing.
Advance Praise
"Meticulously observed and thought-provoking, Looking for Lucie explores DNA testing, dual heritage, identity and the question: Where are you really from? It's a book that will stay with you long after you've finished reading it." - Kim Donovan. Founder of Searchlight Awards
