Junebug and the Reverend

Junebug is set to leave all his old problems behind when his family moves from the projects to a better neighborhood. But new problems crop up: he runs into school bullies and has trouble making friends. His younger sister, Tasha, quickly fits in and becomes friendly with the tenants in their building, a group home for the elderly that their mother supervises.As summer vacation starts, Junebug's lazy-day plans are squashed. His mother tells him to take walks with cranky Reverend Ashford every day and play soccer with the very same school bullies who beat him up. Is this any way to spend a vacation? Little does Junebug know that there are some lessons you don't learn in school.Mead, Alice is the author of 'Junebug and the Reverend' with ISBN 9780613218313 and ISBN 0613218310.
