Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - One courageous young girl, one impossible choice. Book One of the Izzy Chronicles. On the distant planet Mirron, eye color determines everything. Topaz eyes sit at the top of society. Pearl eyes sit at the bottom. And no one is allowed to forget it. Twelve-year-old Izzy Ashford is the only Pearl in an all-Topaz town. Adopted and deeply loved by her Topaz parents, but increasingly aware of what her color means to the world around her. When subtle prejudice turns into open bullying just before sixth-grade graduation, Izzy can no longer pretend the color system doesn't affect her. Then, during a summer vacation, a mysterious stranger named Sam appears with an offer that changes everything: he can permanently transform her Pearl eyes to Topaz, just before the new school year begins. At first, the decision seems obvious. But, as the summer unfolds, Izzy discovers things about friendship, courage, and her own history that she never expected. She begins to wonder whether changing who she is will truly bring the belonging she longs for - or whether it will cost her something she can never get back. With September approaching and the clock running out, Izzy faces the most important decision of her young life. Izzy's Dilemma is a coming-of-age light science fiction fantasy that blends a richly imagined world with timely themes of identity, belonging, bullying, and prejudice. Ideal for fans of The Giver, A Wrinkle in Time, and Wonder. Perfect for readers ages 10 and up. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - On the planet Mirron, the color of your eyes decides your place in the world. Topaz eyes are at the top. Emerald and Sapphire are in the middle. Pearl eyes are at the bottom. Isabelle Ashford, a Pearl raised by a Topaz family, was once offered the chance to trade her eyes for the advantages a higher-ranking color would bring. She turned it down. Now Izzy is older, and the order she grew up in is starting to crack. Across Mirron, protests are spreading, and old certainties are giving way. But the people who benefit most from the way things are have no intention of letting them change, and they're prepared to go further than anyone expected. Izzy, along with two others she's bound to, is being pulled toward the center of a reckoning Mirron has avoided for all of recorded history. Standing up is one thing. Surviving the people determined to keep the world exactly as it is turns out to be another. As friendships deepen, a first love takes hold, and a traitor moves unseen among them, Izzy learns that becoming who she's meant to be will cost more than she ever imagined. The question was never whether Mirron would change. It's whether Izzy will still be standing when it does. Perfect for readers of Red Queen, The Giver, and Divergent. The Izzy Chronicles, Book Two.…
