(3) YA Along with a rich cultural and ethnic mix, Nancy's unusual heritage includes the ancestral line of Anansi. As she waits impatiently for her own spider gifts to be revealed, she is powerfully drawn to a strange, pale boy whose family's fate is inextricably tangled with hers. Spider lore adds an original twist to this quiet coming-of-age story, set in contemporary Brooklyn.
