LEAVING LYMON
Book ID/图书代码： 06430019C00050
English Summary/英文概要： Behind every bad boy is a story worth hearing and at least one chance for redemption. It’s 1946 and Lymon, uprooted from his life in the Deep South and moved up North, needs that chance.
Lymon’s father is, for the time being, at Parchman Farm--the Mississippi State Penitentiary--and his mother, whom he doesn’t remember all that much, has moved North. Fortunately, Lymon is being raised by his loving grandparents. Together, Lymon and his grandpops share a love of music, spending late summer nights playing the guitar.
But Lymon’s world as he knows it is about to dissolve. He will be sent on a journey to two Northern cities far from the country life he loves--and the version of himself he knows. In this companion novel to the Coretta Scott King Honor wining Finding Langston, readers will see a new side of the bully Lymon in this story of an angry boy whose raw talent, resilience, and devotion to music help point him in a new direction.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 每个坏男孩的背后都有一个值得倾听的故事——至少有一个救赎的机会。
莱蒙的父亲在监狱里，他不太记得的母亲搬到北方去了。幸运的是，莱蒙由慈爱的祖父母抚养长大。莱蒙和他的爷爷奶奶都热爱音乐，在夏末的夜晚弹着吉他。
但莱蒙所知的世界即将消失。他将被送往两个北方城市，远离他所热爱的乡村生活——以及他所熟悉的自己。
在这部由美国图书馆协会设立的科雷塔·斯科特·金奖相匹配的小说中，读者将在这个故事中看到土霸莱蒙的另一面，一个愤怒的男孩，他与生俱来的天赋、韧性和对音乐的热爱帮助他找到了新的方向。(Sandy)
