Über diesen Titel
Named to Oprah Magazine's Best Caribbean Books for Your 2021 reading list, imagination and adventure run wild in the most talked about middle-grade debut of the year!
A small village on a Jamaican island.
A girl who doesn't remember the previous summer.
A best friend who is no longer acting like one; a new girl who fills that hole in her heart.
A summer of finding fallen mangos, creating made-up games and dancing in the rain.
Secrets she keeps from others...and herself.
The courage to face the truth even in the toughest of storms.
Inspired by the author's childhood experiences, When Life Give You Mangos is a celebration of island life as well as a rich, lyrical mystery.
Listen to it...and don't spoil the unforgettable ending!
A recommended choice for classroom discussions and educators looking for diverse offerings.

"A wonderful story with great heart, mystery, and insight. Kereen Getten is a bright new voice." (Clare Vanderpool, author of Newbery Medal winner Moon over Manifest and Printz Honor book Navigating Early)
"A heartwarming yet suspenseful debut about the strength of family, the turmoil of friendships lost and found, and most importantly, remembering who you are." (Lynne Kelly, author of the Schneider Award winner Song for a Whale)

Kritikerstimmen
“Getten’s handling of potentially tough topics like family, disability, and religion is spot-on, weaving important discussions into an adventurous, summery plot that just keeps going." —SLJ, starred review
“Getten lures readers in. Readers occupy pretty much the same position as the island kids, puzzling over clues and gossip but unable to pry out the truth.” —The Bulletin, Starred Review
“A touching novel about letting go of the past and moving on.” —Kirkus Reviews
