520    "As the only Indian American kid in her small town, Lekha 
       Divekar feels like she has two versions of herself: Home 
       Lekha, who loves watching Bollywood movies and eating 
       Indian food, and School Lekha, who pins her hair over her 
       bindi birthmark and avoids confrontation at all costs, 
       especially when someone teases her for being Indian. When 
       a girl Lekha's age moves in across the street, Lekha is 
       excited to hear that her name is Avantika and she's Desi 
       too! Finally, there will be someone else around who gets 
       it. But as soon as Avantika speaks, Lekha realizes she has
       an accent. She's new to this country, and not at all like 
       Lekha. To Lekha's surprise, Avantika does not feel the 
       same way as Lekha about having two separate lives or about
       the bullying at school. Avantika doesn't take the bullying
       quietly. And she proudly displays her culture no matter 
       where she is, at home or at shcool. When a racist incident
       rocks Lekha's community, Lekha realizes she must make a 
       choice: continue to remain silent or find her voice before
       it's too late."--Jacket. 
520    When a racist incident rocks her small Michigan town, 
       eleven-year-old Lekha must decide whether to speak up or 
       stay silent, even as she struggles to navigate her life at
       home, where she can be herself, and at school, where she 
       is teased about her culture.
