A teacher's depression and disengagement; a child worried about causing harm to an adult
What this book is about
Cara Landry, new to a school where the teacher seems to be sleepwalking through his days, starts a one-girl newspaper that accidentally provokes a crisis. When her editorial catches administrative attention, the beloved but disengaged teacher is threatened with termination. Clements's school story is about First Amendment rights, journalistic ethics, and the difference between giving up and grieving.
