ABOUT THE BOOK
Life for Alex Schrader has never involved girls. He goes to an all-boys prep school and spends most of his time goofing around with his friends. But all that changes the first time he meets Bijou Doucet, a Haitian girl recently relocated to Brooklyn after the earthquake––and he is determined to win her heart. Bijou is surprised by how different life is in America, especially when a boy asks her out. Alex quickly learns that there are rules when it comes to girls––both in Haitian culture and with his own friends. And Bijou soon learns that she doesn’t have to let go of her roots to find joy in her new life.
