Jamaican-American writer Fiona Zedde Lewis has authored best-selling novels and collections of short stories for adults. "Dreaming in Color" marks her debut writing for young adults-and a compelling debut it is.
Carlene (Cee-Cee) has come to the U.S. from Jamaica to join her mother, who has been working for two years to bring her daughter to join her. But excited as Carlene is to be reunited with her beloved mother, she finds life in her new country daunting. She misses her island home and the father she left behind.

Liverpool was unique among English towns in the rate of its commercial development from the late seventeenth century. Liverpool, 1660-1750 provides the first significant detailed published study of the social and political structure of the town during this crucial period.
