Crossing Lines of Culture and Class to Make Life Work

Changing schools is never easy, but Jonathan didn’t imagine he would ever be faced with the challenge in front of him now. He’s starting a completely new life at a performing arts school—and he’s coping with a new life at home, too. Jonathan’s father, a huge influence in his life, has died, leaving Jonathan and his mom to adjust to a new reality as a single-parent family. On top of all this, Jonathan isn’t sure where he fits in his new community; as the biracial child of an upper-class environment, he’s navigating uncharted territory. But just as Jonathan isn’t sure he’ll find his place, he meets Lionel . . . and as the boys introduce each other to their very different worlds, their friendship only deepens. A story with a strong positive message of inclusion and open-mindedness, Over Easy will become a valued addition to every family’s bookshelf.
