This sweeping narrative weaves together the story of a young girl’s life with the history of her family, as Dasani guides her siblings through a world of violence and inequality. Dasani never loses her conviction that a better life is possible, and on the streets, she fights tenaciously to protect the ones she loves. When one of her teachers takes a special interest in her, Dasani begins on a path toward an extraordinary opportunity: an offer to enroll at a distinguished boarding school that could transform her life. Yet what if leaving poverty means abandoning your family, and losing a part of yourself.\u003cbr\u003e     In beautiful and riveting prose, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Andrea Elliott weaves together an inspiring true story that reads like a page-turning novel. Based on nearly a decade of reporting, Invisible Child illuminates hidden corners of American life, through the astonishing story of one remarkable girl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"You Belong Books and Crafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46650874560711,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/3258\/5671\/files\/invisiblechild.jpg?v=1781315025","url":"https:\/\/youbelongbooksandcrafts.com\/products\/invisible-child-by-andrea-elliott","provider":"You Belong Books and Crafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
