Calls for equality are sweeping America, but sixteen-year-old Ethan Harper is about to discover just how deep the roots of racism run. When mixed-race Ethan is sent to stay with his white uncle and aunt in Ellison, Alabama, he soon discovers that the only thing smaller than the town itself are the minds of its inhabitants.Except for Juniper Jones – resident artist, oddball and self-proclaimed free spirit.

Along the way, they will find hope, friendship – and maybe something more . . .
