Finding My Place by Traci L. Jones

Jones, Traci L. Finding My Place, pgs 178. D & M Publishers Inc., 2010. $16.99. Language- PG (1-4 swears, no "f"), Mature Content- PG; Violence-PG.  Tiphanie may be one of the few Blacks at Brent Hills High School, but that surely will not mean that Tiphanie will take this school by storm.  Set in 1975, this book follow Tiphanie's life as an upper-class African American family who move from the "city" to the "suburbs" and how Tiphanie finds a best friend in the least expectant way.  I really thought this book had a really great story-line and about how much it really takes to finally "fit in." MS- ADVISABLE.
