Bullying and Discrimination
In a post-apocalyptic word of albinos, a mature seventeen
year old girl, Joanne, bullied and discriminated against because of her
pigmented skin, tries to make the best out of her life.
In high school, Joanne mistakenly falls for a cruel and
deceitful albino, Grey, who tricks her for his own devious pleasure. The situation
forces Joanne to remember what her father taught her before he died – to be
proud and demand justice.
While taking care of her dying mother, Joanne tries to pull
herself together, finish school, and keep her job. In the meantime, Grey is
relentless. However, a silver lining appears when she unexpectedly meets Grey’s
brother, Jem. Joanne’s life takes a surprise turn for the better.
Twists and turns throughout The Albino Redwoods by Heather
Nelson create an enjoyable and unpredictable read for all ages. It may generate
discussions about bullying and discrimination.
