Analysis
Mia immediately calls her friends when Jade tells her about the event. Three professional artists agree to donate work, and they put out a call to student artists as well. Jade decides to create a collage based on Lee Lee’s poem. She and Lee Lee sit together in the kitchen, working on their collage and poem.
Asking for help isn’t so scary anymore—and when Jade asks, people are more than willing to deliver. Through this, Jade learns that if she chooses to use her words, she has the power to help herself in addition to helping others.
