This is a...I'm not sure what the right word is for it, but if you asked me to name books that changed the way I look at the world, I would include this one. When I read it, I didn't know you could write about these topics, or that I would feel it so deeply despite not going through the same experiences as Melinda. Earlier this year I was disappointed by the GN version of "A Wrinkle in Time" not living up to the original text for me, but this one does. I love Carroll's illustrations and I think the black and white palette works really well here.
