Just a Little Different, Just Like Me Crystal Watkins

It's a cruel injustice to be judged by the color of our skin. But even crueler to do nothing about it. Lucy and Michelle are pitted against each other the moment they meet. Sitting on the opposite sides of Georgia's class system has forced them to define each other by only their appearance. The stark differences in their lifestyles fuel anger and hatred that broods a huge conflict between them. However, when catastrophe strikes, they must ignore their differences and work together to solve a wicked crime that affects them both. As they team up, the two teenagers learn to see each other not as they're told to be, but who they truly are; the same human yolk beneath the eggshell. Just a Little Different, Just Like Me, explores themes of racism, self-discovery, friendship, and the flaws of premature judgment.
