Meyi (say it: Mey-ee) is in Grade 4. She loves her friends, her family, and her crown, which is not a real crown. It is the way she carries herself when the mean girls try to make her feel small.
Her story is about being left out, figuring out who your real friends are, and standing up for yourself without turning into the mean girl.
Onayimi Ani is a writer based in Ottawa, Canada. Meyi's story began as real conversations with her daughter about recess, friendship, and what to say when someone is unkind.
Those conversations became the Power Lines, and the Power Lines became this book.
