Alicia Keys returns with a graphic teen novel adapted from her song

Girl On Fire

.

To do this, she collaborated with Andrew Weiner on the writing while Brittney Williams took care of the illustration.

As for the plot,

Girl On Fire

features a 14-year-old teenage girl named Lolo with telekinetic powers.

“When I wrote

Girl on Fire

, I knew I was writing it for this girl in the very last row who needed someone to tell her there's nothing you can't do, that nothing is impossible, ”explained the singer who already has two books to her credit in a statement relayed by Billboard.

"A Lolo in each of us"

“When Andrew and I came up with the idea to translate the song into a graphic novel for young adults, I knew I wanted it to be the story of a girl who realizes the strength she always had.

There is a little Lolo in each of us - we all have the power within us to do what we never thought we could do - and I am so proud and happy to be able to share her story with you.

You are going to fall in love with Lolo, ”continued Alicia Keys.

Girl On Fire

will be released by HarperCollins in Spring 2022.
