Collected novels for teens / Joyce Carol Thomas.
In Bright Shadow, the sequel to Marked by Fire, Abyssinia Jackson must learn to cope with tragedy when peace is shattered in her Oklahoma countryside and her boyfriend Carl Lee disappears. In Water Girl, a mystical coming-of-age story and third book in the Abyssinia Jackson saga, Water Girl's Amber makes a startling family discovery that shakes her to the core. In The Golden Pasture, the exquisite horse that twelve-year-old Carl Lee finds on his grandfather's farm one summer helps him to understand his difficult father better. In Journey, Meggie spearheads an investigation into the mysterious disappearances and murders of young people in her town, discovering a plot to rob others of their youth in a horrifying way. Includes a "Teacher and teen discussion guide" following p. 517.
