"Redux's ethereal ability to share her perspective and empower others creates a space in which everyone will benefit from reading her work"—Starred Review, School Library Journal "Redux’s use of frank, sometimes-biting, but consistently thoughtful language, coupled with her openness about her own life stories and lessons learned, shows that she is anything but stupid. McCarthy’s illustrations—her visual responses to Redux’s words—add another layer for consideration to this thought-provoking work. An important and eye-opening contribution to conversations about global identity politics." —Kirkus Reviews
