The Misfits
by Howe, James
“Sticks and stones may break our bones, but names will break our spirits.”
Addie, Skeezie, Joe, and Bobby don't fit in at their school, and are tired of being called horrible names.
Every middle school has it's own crew of Misfits, and in this tale, these kids create a new political party for the student council elections called the No-Name party to encourage people to stop being cruel to those who are different.

Review this book!

This is a horrible book. It was badly written. I am not saying I don't think name calling is bad, but that is the only concept in the book.
