Publisher's Summary

My Name is Shanice....

My name is Shanice Patricia Jackson, and I am 14 years old. I stand 5 feet 6 inches tall, and my body fits the criteria that seems to qualify me as a grown woman to the drunken men who like to stand in front of the corner liquor store. 

Shanice is a Harlem-born teenager with the hopes and dreams of one day escaping the mad house in which she currently lives with her abusive mother, two sisters, and her thumb-sucking little brother. But when she is forced to fend for herself after being abandoned, Shanice is lured into a world that is unapologetic, rougher, and bigger than any of her childhood daydreams. 

Thought-provoking and packed with important life lessons for self-assessment, consequences and family pathologies.
