REACENT INDE. READING BOOK: The Skin I'm In

Well, this book is the story of a seventh grader named Maleeka. Maleeka has very dark black skin. She used to be proud of it, but when her father died, kids started picking on her. Char, the most popular girl in the grade, makes a deal with Maleeka that if she does her home work, Char will stick up for her, and Maleeka can hang out with her. A new teacher arrives, Miss Saunders. She too gets made fun of because she has a big blotch on her face, which is a birth mark. So far that's what I've read, I would recommend this book to anyone who likes books because I think at the end Maleeka will end up being proud of her skin.
