Overview
See below for English description. Au début de sa septième année, Jordan Banks intègre une prestigieuse école privée d'un quartier riche de New York. Il ne se sent pas vraiment à sa place dans ce nouvel environnement. Non seulement il est nouveau, mais il est aussi l'un des seuls élèves noirs de tous les septième année. Jordan comprend vite que sa nouvelle vie sera semée d'embûches. Il va devoir être résilient pour rester fidèle à lui-même, à sa famille et à son quartier. Sera-t-il capable de jongler entre ces deux mondes très différents? Cette bande dessinée poignante explore des thèmes liés au racisme et à la classe sociale, mais aussi à la découverte de nouvelles expériences. School is hard enough without being the new kid. When seventh-grader Jordan Banks finds himself at a prestigious private school in an affluent New York City neighbourhood, he doesn't feel he quite fits in. He's not just the new kid, but also one of the few students of colour in his entire grade. He soon finds out that it's not easy navigating this new life, while staying true to himself and where he comes from. Will Jordan learn to balance the two different worlds, or will one end up taking over? Le nouveau explores topics such as race, culture, and navigating new experiences in this poignant new graphic novel. Original title: New Kid
