Description
"An African American nun challenges the beliefs of her second-grade students in this thought-provoking book set in the 1960s." (Publishers Weekly)
Sister Anne’s hands are brown, and Anna’s hands are white.
It’s the early 1960s, and Anna has never seen a person with dark skin before. At first, she is afraid of her new second-grade teacher. But Anna quickly finds there’s no reason to be scared. Sister Anne is wonderful. She likes jokes, and she makes math and reading fun.
But then someone sails a paper airplane to her, with a cruel message written on its wings. Sister Anne’s wise way of turning a painful incident into a powerful learning experience has a profound impact on Anna and her classmates.
This moving, timeless tale is perfectly adapted for audiobook, with narration by Alyson Silverman.
"With humor and understanding, Lorbiecki writes about a young girl’s coming to terms with racial differences and about the pain that ignorance can cause." (The Horn Book)
