Praise for "Zero Tolerance"

"This compelling novel could also spark a discussion about the slippery nature of rules and how they are enforced." -- School Library Journal

"This will make provocative discussion fodder, and it will also encourage kids to think more deeply about their relationship with rules and approval." -- "BCCB"

Reseña del editor:

Seventh-grader Sierra Shepard has always been the perfect student, so when she sees that she accidentally brought her mother's lunch bag to school, including a paring knife, she immediately turns in the knife at the school office. Much to her surprise, her beloved principal places her in in-school suspension and sets a hearing for her expulsion, citing the school's ironclad no weapons policy. While there, Sierra spends time with Luke, a boy who's known as a troublemaker, and discovers that he's not the person she assumed he would be--and that the lines between good and bad aren't as clear as she once thought. Claudia Mills brings another compelling school story to life with Zero Tolerance.
