*A perfect murder. A faceless witness.
A lone courtroom champion knows the whole truth . . . and he’s only thirteen years old.
Meet Theodore Boone
In the small city of Strattenburg, there are many lawyers, and though he’s only thirteen years old, Theo Boone thinks he’s one of them. Theo knows every judge, policeman, court clerk—and a lot about the law. He dreams of being a great trial lawyer, of a life in the courtroom. But Theo finds himself in court much sooner than expected. Because he knows so much—maybe too much—he is suddenly dragged into the middle of a sensational murder trial. A cold-blooded killer is about to go free, and only Theo knows the truth. The stakes are high, but Theo won’t stop until justice is served.*

I am SO excited about this book. I love John Grisham's adult novels, so I can only imagine what a children's book will be like. I bought it last week, but am TRYING to wait to read it until our BIG trip coming up soon. I will let you know how it is- or you can beat me to it and see if you like it yourself!

ReplyDeleteHmmm, interesting! I'm going to have to check this one out from the library. I love John Grisham. I had no idea he was writing children's books.
ReplyDeleteI heard he had written a children's book! From what I read (librarian list-serve) most of them liked it and thought there would be a series with it!
