The Troubles of Johnny Cannon by Isaiah Campbell
A boy with a highly original voice winces his way into the bewildering world of adults during a neglected moment in American history (Newbery Medalist Richard Peck) in this heroic coming-of-age novel. Johnny Cannon's got problems. Money is scarce. Martha Macker, the girl he likes, barely knows he's alive. His best friend Willie is pretty great, but he also happens to be a black kid--which is not exactly acceptable in Cullman, Alabama. His big brother Tommy went to war and vanished. His Pa may be committing treason in their backyard. And just when it seems like things couldn't get worse, an old family friend--or maybe enemy--appears and shakes everything up. How's a kid like Johnny supposed to get himself and his family out of a mess that's stickier than molasses and twice as tangled as a spiderweb?| SKU | Unavailable |
