Acevedo, Elizabeth. The Poet X. 2018. Harper Teen, Harper Collins Imprint. New York, NY.
So many stories
Are echoes of my own.
I hear voices that remind me of how I became.
Who I am today.
I will never forget the confusion and pain of adolescence.
Words and poetry were the core of her strength.
Music and notes were the power of mine.
Her story ended with power and peace,
the love of her parents entwined, making her stronger.
Xiomara finds her voice and shares her story.
Her power will help you find your own.
Printz Award Winner for 2019.
