New Boy

"This is history without the sensationalism, in which small acts of resistance eventually change the rules."--New York Times Book Review
"The strong cast of characters, steady progression of events, realistic dialogue, historical facts, touch of romance, and coming-of-age awareness and reflection will appeal to readers."--School Library Journal
In this compelling debut novel, a sixteen-year-old African American boy discovers the world--and himself--when he integrates an all-white boarding school in the 1950s.
