By Sapphire...meet Precious Jones, she is an illiterate 16 year old who has been abused by her father and mother. She is pregnant with her second child and gets kicked out of school. She is sent to a different school where she meets a teacher who is determined to give Precious some hope. This is a powerful book, with a powerful message. I will also warn that it is very graphic and may not be suitable for all audiences...though I would argue that this is something everyone should read. This book has been made into a movie PRECIOUS. After reading the book I am anxious to see the movie.
