Before Vonteresa M. Green was an author, a wife, a mother, or anything else the world would come to know her as — she was Michelle. A tall, gap-toothed, kinky-haired, sneaker-wearing, gifted girl growing up in Albany, Georgia. Not Albany, New York. Albany, Georgia.
This Is Me in Albany is the hilarious and heartfelt true story of a girl who was too much and not enough all at the same time — and had absolutely no idea that different was her superpower the whole time.
From jumping on a German shepherd named Snowball and winning, to summoning seven cab drivers just because she could, to surviving a falling tree, a sock-based magic show, a smoky afro, and a backyard fire — Michelle had a plan. It did not always work. But she always figured it out anyway.
For every adult who grew up feeling out of place and made it through anyway — this one will make you laugh out loud and exhale with relief. And for every child who has ever felt too tall, too different, too much, or not enough — this book is for you.
You are going to turn out just fine. Especially if nobody throws you the stick.
