Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Two seventh-graders who have always been misfits decide to do something about it with the approach of the student council elections. When the they team up to form a new political party, their platform bans name calling — and the impact on the school and their own lives is a surprise to all.

I loved this book. I felt the characters were realistic and the issues about being misfits are the same that affect actual 7th graders. I would highly recommend this book.
