About This Book
A parent should reach for this book when their middle-grade child is struggling to find their voice amid a major family shift, particularly a parental separation involving an LGBTQ+ parent. Caprice tells the story of a thirteen-year-old girl whose world is turned upside down when her parents separate and her mother, a pastor, falls in love with another woman. The book sensitively explores Caprice's confusion, her feeling of being unheard, and her journey to advocate for her own needs. For ages 10 to 14, it is an excellent choice for normalizing the complex emotions around divorce and providing a much-needed, nuanced representation of a Black family navigating faith, identity, and change with honesty and love.
