Description
Flight 587, which inspired this week's book, was the second deadliest aviation crash in history. It occurred just two months and one day after 9/11 and rocked families from NYC to the Dominican Republic. Today, we're diving into the details of that historic tragedy. Then it's on to our book, a unique novel written in poetic stanzas:
A tragedy in the sky forces two girls and their families on the ground to unpack their secrets, carry them across waters, and breathe life into a truth they've desperately tried to ignore.
The girls: Camino and Yahaira
The book: Clap when you land by Elizabeth Acevedo
