SUMMARY:Coming Home (Adapted for Young Adults)
DESCRIPTION:Coming Home (Adapted for Young Adults) by Brittney Griner; Michelle Burford\nRandom House Children’s Books \nOn February 17\, 2022\, Brittney Griner arrived in Moscow ready to play for a Russian women’s basketball team. Instead\, a security checkpoint became her gateway to hell and she was arrested for mistakenly carrying a small amount of an illegal substance in Russia. Brittney’s world was violently upended in a crisis that would capture the interest of an entire nation. \nBrittney shares this harrowing story of courage and strength\, while recalling her teenage years where she found meaning and empowerment in sports\, and overcoming her own struggles with her sexual identity. Her principles of fortitude and courage are ever evident as she goes on to recount her feelings of isolation while navigating a foreign legal system\, her emotional and physical anguish as the first American woman ever to endure a Russian penal colony\, the chilling prisoner swap with Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout\, and her remarkable rise from hostage to global spokesperson on behalf of other detained Americans. \nYoung readers will identify with Brittney’s story of overcoming insurmountable odds\, finding strength within herself\, and navigating the ups and downs of coming of age as a queer Black woman. Coming Home is both a story of survival and a testament to love—the bonds that brought Brittney home to her family\, and ultimately\, to herself.
