Informacje o audiobooku
Between the Lines, narrated by Melanie Hooks, is a multiple award-winning book which tells the story of three girls who become friends during the racially-charged aftermath of the 1967 Detroit Riots. Hattie Percha is crushed when the riots start on her tenth birthday, and when she must move away from her treasured childhood home and friends, attending public school for the first time, she’s afraid her life is over. Then, she meets Beverly Jo Nichols, her first black friend, and Crackers, a fearless tomboy. Despite opposition from Hattie’s mother and a racist teacher, the unlikely friends join forces. As the self-proclaimed Dream Girls, they challenge bigotry and intolerance, willing to do whatever it takes to hold onto what’s most precious to them all, their friendship.

O autorze
Claudia began creating stories when she was very little, and once in the 5th grade, she spent hours recording them in longhand on looseleaf paper. When she wasn't writing, she was reading. Claudia grew up to be a teacher and mother, but after raising her children, went back to writing. She is proud to be an author of both children's and adult novels. In addition to writing the award-winning historical fiction Kids Like You Series, which includes the Between the Lines, Beyond the Lines, Broken Lines and Battle Lines, Claudia has also authored another Michigan based novel, The Wrong Guy, loosely based on the Michigan Murders of the late sixties. She is the author of the Samantha Series as well, including Identity Issues, Intimacy Issues, Internal Issues, and Inherited Issues. Recently, she has released the first in her new Love and Loss Series, Black Ice. This series is unique in that the characters in each book are different, and the series focuses on the themes of love and loss. When not writing, solving mysteries, or visiting classrooms to spread her message that #friendshipiscolorblind, Claudia enjoys wine-tasting, swimming, and spending time with family and friends.
