Review:
Outraged over the annual "Slave Day" fundraiser at his high school, Keene Davenport cooks up a few plans of his own in protest. Civil disobedience rarely proceeds smoothly in any environment--especially in a high school--so many surprises are in store! Told in alternating first-person narratives, this novel will take readers inside the lives of eight people (including geeks, beauty queens, football players, and one cranky teacher) as the events unfold during the strangest Slave Day ever. Here, Rob Thomas--one of the freshest voices in books for teens--explores the many facets of prejudice with grace, subtlety, and wit. A lively read!
