(3) YA Three immigrant girls from different backgrounds--but with the common bond that their mothers work as maids and nannies--navigate eighth grade in a wealthy New Jersey suburb. Alternating between each girl's perspective, this novel highlights the prejudices and social tribulations the characters face individually and together. Budhos admirably explores the subject of immigration in this emotional story about self-worth and friendship.
