I Have a Name by Patricia Grass —BEST OF SHOW AWARD!

BEST OF SHOW AWARD!
After two years in the Philippines, I had enough of being called WHITE WOMAN. I just wanted to scream, "I HAVE A NAME, and it is not my skin color." The pages are based on a chart of human skin colors and the ridiculous names paint companies give colors on their paint charts. The color shades in my book were created on a computer with names from actual paint chips.
