Synopsis
In 1953, Leah Hopper dreams of leaving the poverty and segregation of her home in Sulphur, Louisiana, and when Aunt Olivia sends train tickets to Los Angeles as part of her tenth birthday present, Leah gets a first taste of freedom.
Leah Hopper is thrilled when, on her 10th birthday, her sophisticated and wealthy Aunt Olivia sends her a beautiful suitcase covered with red roses and filled with all sorts of extraordinary gifts. One of the gifts is a packet of train tickets and an invitation for the entire family to travel from their small, rural southern hometown to the big city of Los Angeles. While there, the family experiences a life far different from the one in their sleepy, racially segregated hometown. But later, when a tragedy forces Leah and her younger sister to relocate to Los Angeles permanently, Leah finds that wealth and material comforts are not what she treasures most in life. A 2003 Coretta Scott King Author Honors book.

Publisher's Note
After receiving a beautiful red rose box filled with magical things for her birthday from her Aunt Olivia, Leah and her little sister Ruth arrive in Los Angeles to visit their aunt and quickly become enamored with her luxurious lifestyle, but when unexpected tragedy forces the girls to make Los Angeles their home, they long to return to their roots in Sulphur, Louisiana. A Coretta Scott King Honor Book. Reprint.

Industry reviews
"This a work that beautifully and accurately evokes a particularly painful and hopeful time through an insider's eyes, and yet it is also a timeless, universal tale of a young girl's road to maturity. An impressive debut."
Kirkus Reviews  (04/15/2002)

"This provides more insight into the forces behind (and the state of the country before) the civil rights movement than many novels dealing more directly with the subject, and it's also a quietly touching story of a girl's survival in the face of family tragedy."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Deborah Stevenson
