Publisher's Summary

Nikki Grimes, a best-selling author known for titles such as Dark Sons, Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope, and Voices of Christmas has written a gripping book from the perspective of a girl named Mister (Mary Rudine), who finds herself momentarily distracted from her faith commitment to purity by a handsome boy named Trey.

After one night of weakness, Mister finds her entire life has changed, even if she can’t yet accept all the changes occurring within her are real.

When the emotional scars of losing her innocence are more lasting than she imagined, Mister turns to a book of her mother’s, which contains poems from Mary’s perspective. As both Mister and Mary’s voices play out in the story, a full and meaningful portrait of Christian faith, trust, and forgiveness emerges, along with the truth that God can use even the most unplanned events in our lives for his greater glory.
