Attack of the Black Rectangles by Amy Sarig King
When Mac first opens his classroom copy of Jane Yolen's The Devil’s Arithmetic and finds some words blacked out, he thinks it must be a mistake. But then when he and his friends discover what the missing words are, he's outraged. Someone in his school is trying to prevent kids from reading the full story. But who? Even though his unreliable dad tells him to not get so emotional about a book (or anything else), Mac has been raised by his mom and grandad to call out things that are wrong. He and his friends head to the principal's office to protest the censorship... but her response doesn't take them seriously. So many adults want Mac to keep his words to himself. Mac's about to see the power of letting them out. In Attack of the Black Rectangles, acclaimed author Amy Sarig King shows all the ways truth can be hard ... but still worth fighting for.King is the author of eight critically praised young adult novels. Her novel Please Forget Vera Dietz won a Michael L. Printz Award in 2011. The Los Angeles Times Book Prize went to Printz Honor and Ask the Passengers in 2013. She was named one of the top young adult novelists writing today by the New York Times. King came to Pennsylvania with her family after more than a decade living on a farm and teaching adult literacy in Ireland.
