A boy from the hood in Brooklyn travels to a STEM camp in an
Appalachian holler for one epic, life-changing summer in this brilliant
novel from the award-winning author of The Stars Beneath Our Feet.
Javari knew that West Virginia would be different from his home in
Bushwick, Brooklyn. But his first day at STEM Camp in a little
Appalachian town is still a shock. Though run-ins with the police are
just the same here. Not good.
Javari will learn a lot about science, tech, engineering, and math at
camp. And also about rich people, racism, and hidden agendas. But it's
Cricket, a local boy, budding activist, and occasional thief, who will
show him a different side of the holler--and blow his mind wide open.
Javari is about to have that summer. Where everything gets messy and
complicated and confusing . . . and you wouldn't want it any other way.
