Recensione

"Like Project Wheels, this sequel about a group of sixth-grade kids in a southwest Kentucky school is a fresh, honest story of friendship, family, and prejudice." Booklist, ALA

"Sixth-grader Jury wants to befriend Ayreal, a new student who is also African American, but his twin brother and their posse are skeptical of the outsider. To complicate matters, the twins fear that their mother might marry her boyfriend, a man whom they dislike. The lively story touches on many modern themes without settling for easy answers." -- Copyright © 1994 The Horn Book, Inc. All rights reserved Horn Book
