Summary	"Iris opens her eyes to hard truths and the power of her voice when her father dies of AIDS in 1987"-- Provided by publisher.
	1987. Iris tries to act normal at school, going through the motions and joking around with her friends, but it feels like she'll never laugh again. How can she, when her dad is dying of a virus that is off-limits to talk about? When she knows that soon all she will have left of her kind, loving dad are memories, photos, and a binder full of the poems they used to exchange? Iris resolves to speak out against the rampant fear, misinformation, and prejudice surrounding AIDS. In her search, she might find the pieces of Dad that she never knew before-- and might just find new sides to herself. -- adapted from jacket
