A Black Girl With Long Braids, Wearing A Colorful Dress, Stands In The Center Of The Cover. She Is Surrounded By A White Family, All Smiling And Looking At Her With Love And Affection. Coconut: A Black Girl Fostered By A White Family In The 1960s And Her Search For Belonging And Identity

In the turbulent 1960s, a young black girl named Mary is uprooted from her home and placed in a foster care system that sends her to live with a white family. As she navigates the challenges of growing up in a world that treats her differently because of her race, Mary's heart yearns for a sense of belonging.
