{"product_id":"jazz-girl-sarah-bruce-kelly-9780615353760","title":"Jazz Girl","description":"13-year-old Mary was marked from birth by the \"sign of the caul,\" a powerful signifier in African-American culture. The caul indicates rare powers, especially a tendency toward \"second sight.\" Mary's special gift of seeing manifests itself in visions of ghosts and spirits and culminates in an uncanny musical ability. But her remarkable gifts set her apart from her Pittsburgh neighbors, and she is shunned and belittled. Mary's loneliness is compounded by her mother's cruelty and indifference. She must find her own way through the tangled web of difficulties she faces everyday, and her music becomes her refuge. Gradually, though, Mary learns that music is more than just an escape from her problems. By losing herself in her extraordinary musical creativity, she grapples with her inner demons and discovers the true power of her special gifts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarah Bruce Kelly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0615353762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780615353760\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bel Canto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.46d","brand":"Sarah Bruce Kelly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44128504054015,"sku":"9780615353760","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b40af8fa-412c-4fae-96d8-f9cc3aa7cf65.jpg?v=1687458989","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jazz-girl-sarah-bruce-kelly-9780615353760","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
