Description
Set in early 1970's America and the aftermath of the Civil Rights Movement, Prepped: A Memoir, is the story of Veda Pendleton's journey from her predominantly black community in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, to The Ethel Walker School (Walker's) in Simsbury, Connecticut. It's the story of a gifted black girl who chose to accept the opportunity to have a better chance at life in America and attend prep school. Veda entered a foreign world fraught with academic, social and emotional challenges as she came of age in both black and white worlds.
A young adult memoir, Prepped is an account of Veda's time at Walker's and how she struggled with self-esteem and a new way of learning. These experiences helped her grow and learn in ways she had never imagined.
