Night Fires by George Edward Stanley


Stanley, George Edward Night Fires, 184 pgs. Aladdin, 2009. Language - PG (2 swears, 0 "f"), Sexual Content - G; Violence - PG; Woodrow has just moved to Oklahoma with his mom after his father's death. he wants to fit in and have friends, but what happens what the ones being nice just want to manipulate you? Woodrow wants to go along with it in order to get high enough in power to change it, but it goes against his values. What do you do? Even though peer pressure has gone down from the KKK, there is still a lot of pressure out there. You have to do this, wear that, hang out with these people and be rude to those, do drugs, smoke, the list goes on and on! Sometimes it's hard to make the right choice, as Woodrow shows. The important thing is to do what YOU know is right. If you make a mistake, tell someone and fix it. MS - OPTIONAL. Reviewer: CCH
