Simone is a powerful tale of transformation and resilience. When a wildfire threatens her home, Simone embarks on a life-changing journey with her family. Along the way, they meet firefighters from a prison unit battling the blaze, and Simone finds solace in drawing as a way to process their situation. As she creates art with new friends, Simone begins to see the world in a different light. She realizes that even though they are young, they can dream of a more sustainable future. With poignant prose by Viet Thanh Nguyen and stunning illustrations by Minnie Phan, this book introduces an unforgettable heroine who awakens to a new role fighting for her community. Through Simone's story, we see the importance of hope, creativity, and community in the face of adversity. This moving tale is a worthwhile read for anyone looking for a powerful and thought-provoking story about growing up and finding one's place in the world.
