Award-winning author Amy Sarig King takes on censorship and
intolerance in a novel she was born to write. When Mac first opens
his classroom copy of Jane Yolen's The Devil's Arithmetic and finds
some words blacked out, he thinks it must be a mistake. But then
when he and his friends discover what the missing words are, he's
outraged. Someone in his school is trying to prevent kids from
reading the full story. But who? Even though his unreliable dad
tells him to not get so emotional about a book (or anything else),
Mac has been raised by his mom and grandad to call out things that
are wrong. He and his friends head to the principal's office to
protest the censorship... but her response doesn't take them
seriously. So many adults want Mac to keep his words to himself.
Mac's about to see the power of letting them out. In Attack of the
Black Rectangles, acclaimed author Amy Sarig King shows all the
ways truth can be hard... but still worth fighting for.
