Throwing light on a dark problem Parkland Middle School is a place the students call Darkland, because no one in it does much to stop the daily harassment of kids by other kids. Three bullied seventh graders use their smarts to get the better of their tormentors by starting an unofficial e-mail forum at school in which they publicize their experiences. Unexpectedly, lots of other kids come forward to confess their similar troubles, and it becomes clear that the problem at their school is bigger than anyone knew. The school principal wants to clamp down on the operation, which she does when the trio, in their zealousness for revenge, libel a fellow student in what turns out to have been a setup. Now a new plan of attack is needed . . . This suspenseful story of computer-era underground rebellion offers fresh perspectives on some of the most enduring themes in fiction for young readers. The Revealers is a 2004 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

The Revealers

SCENE OF THE CRIME

Luke is an American kid, in a place he doesn't understand.In this multicultural thriller, a teenager who loves music is angry with his father, blaming his parents' divorce on his dad's obsession with finishing a book about a lost ancient civilization in a dangerous part of Asia. But his father badly wants his son to understand-so he brings Luke to Peshawar, an age-old crossroads city in Pakistan's Northwest Frontier. To punish his dad, Luke refuses to learn anything about the project, and instead, is drawn into the strange, intriguing Old City, where a violent new extremism is on the rise. Luke is dazzled by the beautiful Danisha, but they can't ever be seen together. He's recruited by her brother to assist the jihadis, but he also bonds with Yusuf, an Afghan refugee who knows what could happen to friends of jihadis. Then there are the musicians Luke befriends, and a mysterious Sufi teacher who opens his eyes. Street of Storytellers is about three families across two cultures. It's about an ancient true story the world has almost forgotten. And it's about thinking for yourself-even when that puts your life at risk.
