Sequoia Denise, Just a Kid
School is out and thirteen-year-old Sequoia Denise Washington is bored already. She thinks it's going to be another uneventful summer; one that consists of battling with her mother or being in the shadows of her oldest sisters, Desiree and LaToria. Then she meets the coolest person ever- Brandon. Brandon is fifteen, Korean, and the most exciting boy she's ever met. She befriends him even though she knows her mother wouldn't approve.
She's having a great summer until LaToria ups and quits her job at the Times to dance in a bikini bar. Her mother finds out about Brandon and forbids her to see him again. Next, Desiree shocks them with a secret, one with devastating consequences. Suddenly, her whole world is spinning out of control.
When will her family stop treating her like she's just a little kid? How will she handle the news that Brandon has to move? Can she bond with the father she has never met? How will she ever cope with losing a family member?
