Non Stop Summer,
By
This review is from: Know It by Heart (Paperback)
This is a great book for middle school and high school students. The narrator is an 11 year old who has one hell of a summer in 1961 in East Hartford Connecticut. In addition to a first crush on a girl, he has to confront the ugliness of racism in his neighborhood among his peers and the adults. The author throws in a few jokes that baby boomers will catch (about using a Sandy Koufax baseball card in bike spokes,for example)and accurately describes the 1961 mindset for nostalgia buffs. It should be used in the schools in civics classes and for book reports.
