Ten-year old Lynn has the perfect family in the eyes of her best friend Johnny. Yet trapped inside a poverty-stricken childhood, her so-called perfect world begins to fall apart. She depends on the only person outside her family who can help her, but he is nowhere to be found. Punished and locked under his father's grasp, Johnny disobeys him and secretly meets with her in their private spot deep in the woods. Suddenly, he is trapped by his father and decides to run away from home to protect his friendship with the one true person who sees more than just his color. Will this put an end to the perfect friendship? Or will love's bond shatter the walls of hatred? "To unveil the real meaning of friendship, they only need to allow a ray of light to shine through, just enough to see the true color inside."

May 07, 2006: The novel, Blinded by Colors by Deborah Grate Frink, made me feel right at home. I saw many people that I knew (of both races) in it. The book needed to be written and published. I love the dialect, the characters, and the issues. Actually, I loved everything. All I can say is WOW! The subject matter of the book may be touchy and may even make some people feel uncomfortable, but these are the scenes that really MAKE the book.
