★2023 紐伯瑞銀獎得獎作品

 

正要邁入青春期的少女 Iveliz,決定擺脫國小最後那段糟糕的回憶並為自己的七年級生活設下目標!她決定要交些新朋友、改正自己的缺點、學習種碗豆、幫忙從波多黎各搬來的祖母安頓新生活,以及不在學校惹出更多的麻煩。

 

然而,這一切卻沒有 Iveliz 想的那麼容易。無論她再怎麼努力克制自己的脾氣,有些人的話語偶爾仍會激怒她。更糟的是,儘管服用藥物能幫助她感到不那麼悲傷,祖母卻不停說她所吃的藥是不必要且沒有用的......但就連她都不確定自己到底發生了什麼事,Iveliz 又該如何讓別人知道她的感受呢?

 

Iveliz Explains It All 為 Andrea Beatriz Arango 處女作,透過韻文及日記的形式探討現代社會青少年常見的困難及問題,如心理健康、找到屬於自己的聲音及發現真正愛自己的人。
