Title: The Road to Paris
Author: Nikki Grimes
From GoodReads, "Paris has just moved in with the Lincoln family, and she isn't thrilled to be in yet another foster home. She has a tough time trusting people, and she misses her brother, who's been sent to a boys' home. Over time, the Lincolns grow on Paris. But no matter how hard she tries to fit in, she can't ignore the feeling that she never will, especially in a town that's mostly white while she is half black. It isn't long before Paris has a big decision to make about where she truly belongs."
This is a touching story about a girl (Paris) who moved to many different foster families and finally comes across a loving family, the Lincoln's. But Paris can't decide if she should trust them. I really loved this book. It made me want to cry in some places, but it also made me want to read on.
