makbeta reviewed The road to Paris by Nikki Grimes
Review of 'The road to Paris' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
A good, heartfelt, and realistic story about an experience of a child in foster care. This is not a fairy-tale, so no happy endings, just lots of mixed feelings. The author accurately depicts the struggle for belonging, prejudice, and the difficulty of choices. The author clearly depicts the strength of human attachment and the complications that ensue when the child is attached to a parent that's not emotionally healthy.
