Left-handed Anya draws with great passion . . . but only when she's
alone.
In Russia, right-handedness is demanded--it is the right way. This
cultural expectation stifles young Anya's creativity and artistic spirit
as she draws the world around her in secret.
Hiding away from family, teachers, and neighbors, Anya imagines a secret
society of famous left-handed artists drawing alongside her. But once
her family emigrates from Russia to America, her life becomes less
clandestine, and she no longer feels she needs to conceal a piece of her
identity.
