From number one New York Times best-selling author Nic Stone comes a middle-grade road-trip story through American race relations past and present, perfect for fans of Jacqueline Woodson and Jason Reynolds.

How to go on an unplanned road trip with your grandma:

  • Grab a suitcase: Prepacked from the big spring break trip that got cancelled.
  • Fasten your seatbelt: G'ma's never conventional, so this trip won't be either.
  • Use the Green Book: G'ma's most treasured possession. It holds history, memories, and most important, the way home.
What not to bring:

  • A cell phone: Avoid contact with Dad at all costs. Even when G'ma starts acting stranger than usual.
Set against the backdrop of the segregation history of the American South, take a trip with New York Times best-selling Nic Stone and an 11-year-old boy who is about to discover that the world hasn't always been a welcoming place for kids like him, and things aren't always what they seem - his G'ma included.
