His neighbor Stacey Logan and Stacey's brothers and sister are there to see their grandmother off on a trip. Jeremy's friend Josias Williams is taking the bus to his new job. But Josias and the Logans are black, and in Mississippi in the 1930s, black people can't ride the bus if that means there won't be enough room for white people to ride. When several white passengers arrive at the last minute, the driver sends Josias and Stacey's grandmother off the bus. Then comes a terrifying moment that unites all the townspeople in a nightmare that will change their lives forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e“Well written and thought provoking, this book will haunt readers and generate much discussion.”—\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Penguin Young Readers Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47077224644848,"sku":"9781101666265","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781101666265_p0.jpg?v=1763689649","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781101666265","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
