Memorial Award Honor * Reha feels torn between two worlds: school,
where she's the only Indian American student, and home, with her
family's traditions and holidays. But Reha's parents don't
understand why she's conflicted-they only notice when Reha doesn't
meet their strict expectations. Reha feels disconnected from her
mother, or Amma. Although their names are linked-Reha means "star"
and Punam means "moon"-they are a universe apart. Then Reha finds
out that her Amma is sick. Really sick. Reha, who dreams of
becoming a doctor even though she can't stomach the sight of blood,
is determined to make her Amma well again. She'll be the perfect
daughter, if it means saving her Amma's life. From Indies Introduce
author Rajani LaRocca comes a radiant story about the ties that
bind and how to go on in the face of unthinkable loss. This is the
perfect next read for fans of Jasmine Warga and Thanhha Lai.
