Invisible Child Overview

A remarkable example of immersive journalism, Andrea Elliott's Invisible Child: Poverty, Survival and Hope in an American City depicts several years in the life of Dasani Coates and her family as they battle deep poverty and cycles of homelessness. This long-form journalism also traces Dasani's attempts to transcend poverty by enrolling at the Milton Hershey School. Elliott's book reminds readers that American prosperity does not apply to all Americans, and escaping poverty can be a life-long struggle.
