FUZZY MUD clarifies civic responsibility and a cure for bullying

Louis Sachar, author of Holes, The Wayside School Series and many other books for elementary through middle school aged readers has a new winner. Fuzzy Mud is a timely story of mystery, bullies, science, politics and a global disaster barely averted. With compelling, realistic and engaged middle school characters, a bully in need of understanding and a biological disaster brewing in the woods, there is plenty of fodder for discussion in this small (181 pages) book that holds enough fodder for discussion to enliven bookclubs and classrooms.
