Unfadeable by Maurice Broaddus
4.0

Thanks to @netgalley and @harpercollinsch for the advance Kindle copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 for this 4/15/22 release. Isabella Fades, a homeless girl in Indianapolis, channels her feelings by tagging. She goes by Unfadeable. When her request for a summer community art project is denied, she senses that something is amiss in her beloved community. With the help of some unlikely friends, she investigates, finding the meaning of family along the way. A love story to a forgotten pocket of the community, I loved the parallels between Bella and her home. Highly recommend for grades 6-8.
