Summary:
Dasani's imagination is as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn shelter, yet her indomitable spirit is tested by homelessness, poverty, and racism, in a divided city. 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.
