Présentation de l'éditeur :
It's the middle of summer in Mirabeau, Texas, but already Garnet Hubbard looks forward to fall -- to entering seventh grade and becoming a teenager at last. With Opal, her beautiful and popular fourteen-year-old sister, as her guide, Garnet is sure to have a great year. But everything changes when their mother, Melanie, packs them up and heads for Nashville, determined to fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a country singer. Almost before they know it, Melanie drops the girls at her sister's house in Oklahoma, assuring them she'll be back just as soon as she's settled in Tennessee. But when a few days turn into a few weeks and beyond, with no Melanie in sight, the girls begin to realize what has happened.
While Opal soon becomes one of the most popular girls in school, her younger sister struggles. For Garnet, getting used to her new life means trying to figure out how to have pride in herself when it seems she has little to offer the world and the odds are stacked against her. With only each other to lean on, Melanie's "precious gems" must learn to live with the hand they've been dealt and to accept the changing face of their family.
Set in the early 1960s and beautifully told by D. Anne Love, Semiprecious is a powerful, poignant, and often funny coming-of-age novel that will stay with readers long after the turn of the final page.

"Charming and insightful, Semiprecious is a book young girls will treasure." -- Rachel Cohn, author of Shrimp, Pop Princess, The Steps, and Gingerbread
"In D. Anne Love's Semiprecious, Garnet Hubbard speaks in a voice so strong and true I could have listened to her forever. She's tough and vulnerable, funny and furious as a hornet's nest. Truth is, like anyone I've ever met from Texas, Garnet's just plain hard not to like." -- Frances O'Roark Dowell, author of Where I'd Like to Be, The Secret Language of Girls, Dovey Coe, and Chicken Boy
