Bluish

Ten-year-old Dreenie, a recent transfer to a New York City magnet school, is fascinated with her fellow classmate Natalie, a girl battling leukemia. Kids call her Bluish, not a derogatory term for her black and Jewish heritage, “Blewish,” but because of the effects of chemotherapy on her skin. Together, Dreenie and her other classmate, Tuli, are able to reach out to the rest of the class in accepting and celebrating Bluish as she is.
