The Lions of Little Rock by Kristin Levine
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I enjoyed this book, but I wasn't completely wowed by it. I like the idea that it follows the year after the schools in Little Rock were first integrated. Sometimes the follow-up is just as interesting as the original news story.
One of the things I am not so sure about is the selective mutism aspect of the story. I have an acquaintance whose son had this difficulty and it would be interesting to find out if his experience over-coming the problem had any relation to the protagonist's experience.
