The Wednesday Wars
by Gary D. Schmidt
Newbery Honor * BBYA. During his seventh grade school year in 1967, Holling Hoodhood spends the Wednesday afternoons when his classmates are all either studying their Catechism or at Hebrew School reading Shakespeare, hunting rats, and learning the consequences of the Vietnam War under the watchful eye of his teacher, Mrs. Baker. A story that manages to be both hilarious and bittersweet.
