Stranger in the Mirror by Allen Say [in What Do I Read Next? Multicultural Literature]
Sam wakes up one day with the face of his elderly grandfather. He has a frustrating time trying to convince his family and friends that he really is still Sam inside. Only when he takes to the skateboard does he feel like his old self again.
While Stranger is just one of Say’s many memorable titles, Stranger remains one of his most extraordinary.
