It's the end of summer in Atlanta, and fifth-grade classmates Tasha
Baxter, Rodney Green, and Octavia Harrison will discover that
back-to-school means facing everyday challenges in a new world of
safety lessons, terrified parents, and constant fear. Because it
was the summer during which Atlanta's African-American children
were vanishing. The moving story of their struggle to grow up and
survive shimmers with the piercing, ineffable quality of childhood,
as it captures all the hurts and little wins, the all-too-sudden
changes, and the merciless, outside forces that can sweep the young
into adulthood and forever shape their lives.
