About this book

Español

El niño nuevo

A Jordan Banks, que empieza este curso en un nuevo colegio, le encanta dibujar cómics acerca de su vida. No obstante, sus padres, en vez de cumplir su sueño y enviarlo a una escuela de Bellas Artes, deciden llevarlo a un prestigioso colegio privado destacado por su calidad educativa, donde resulta que Jordan es uno de los pocos chicos afroamericanos. Durante los viajes diarios desde el apartamento de Washington Heights en el que vive a la exclusiva Academia Riverdale, Jordan acaba dándose cuenta de que está dividido entre dos mundos y de que no encaja en ninguno de ellos. Bastante duro es secundaria como para añadir todas las reglas no escritas y expectativas asociadas a que seas el nuevo. ¿Será capaz de aprender a moverse por el día a día de su nuevo colegio al tiempo que conserva a sus amigos del vecindario y se mantiene fiel a sí mismo?

English

The New Kid

Jordan Banks, who is starting this year at a new school, loves to draw comics about his life. However, his parents, instead of fulfilling his dream and sending him to a fine arts school, decide to take him to a prestigious private school noted for its educational quality, where Jordan happens to be one of the few African-American boys. During the daily commute from the Washington Heights apartment where he lives to the exclusive Riverdale Academy, Jordan eventually realizes that he is torn between two worlds and that he doesn't fit into either. Tough enough is high school without adding all the unwritten rules and expectations associated with you being the new kid. Will he be able to learn to navigate the day-to-day life of his new school while keeping his neighborhood friends and staying true to himself?
