The Long Ride by Marina Budhos

5.0

The best part about this was that it was a properly young teen novel! Navigating junior high! With all its mess and challenge. With the added challenge, and rarity of telling the story of an integrating junior high school, and kids who are mixed-race in the early 70's. Well done, authentic and good stuff. Will hand to teens and teachers for sure
