Description

A tender, heartfelt, and intelligent coming-of-age story that celebrates quiet strength and trusting your instincts. Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Straight A student, talented artist, swim team star tenth-grader Lexie Moore is a shoo-in for Sunridge Highs prestigious fine art program, if only she can find the right words to tell her dad she wants to apply.

Lexies dad doesnt see the point of some overpriced art school. He wants Lexie and her brother at home to help him launch his new renovation business. He says he cant do this without her, so Lexie agrees to pitch in, just for a little while. If she supports his plan, then hell have to support hers, right? Its only fair.

But Lexies dad has a very different definition of fair, and as his demands increase, his means of getting his way become more and more suffocating.

Red Flags and Butterflies is an engrossing story about a young person facing the realities of emotional abuse.
