Frazier.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nWhen Minerva and Keira King were born, they made headlines: Keira is black like Mama, but Minni is white like Daddy. Together the family might look like part of a chessboard row, but they are first and foremost the close-knit Kings. Then Grandmother Johnson calls, to invite the twins down South to compete for the title of Miss Black Pearl Preteen of America.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nMinni dreads the spotlight, but Keira assures her that together they&#8217;ll get through their stay with Grandmother Johnson. But when grandmother&#8217;s bias against Keira reveals itself, Keira pulls away from her twin. Minni has always believed that no matter how different she and Keira are, they share a deep bond of the heart. Now she&#8217;ll find out the truth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Other Half of My Heart Random House June 2010 304 pages Hardcover ISBN: 978-0-385-73440-0 Paperback ISBN: 978-0-440-24006-8 Sundee T.
