Description
Sarah ne porte que du noir et a toujours senti que la fin du monde était proche, tandis que Laurie s’habille en rose et cherche la beauté partout.
Un professeur d’arts plastiques sévère oblige Sarah et Laurie à travailler en équipe pour leur projet final. Les filles doivent apprendre à se connaître suffisamment pour que chacune puisse trouver une citation correspondant à la personnalité de sa coéquipière. Sarah n’est pas du tout enchantée d’avoir à passer du temps avec Laurie qui, selon elle, n’est qu’une poupée sans cervelle. Au fur et à mesure qu’elles réalisent leurs projets, Sarah surmonte ses appréhensions et apprend des vérités surprenantes sur Laurie… et sur elle-même.
Cet ouvrage en format ePub est entièrement accessible. Également disponible sous le titre Mirror Image en anglais.
