| 內容簡介: |
Palmer LaRue is running out of birthdays. For as long as he
來源:香港大書城megBookStore,http://www.megbook.com.hk can remember, he''s dreaded the day he turns ten––the day he''ll take
his place beside all the other ten-year-old boys in town, the day
he''ll be a wringer. But Palmer doesn''t want to be a wringer. It''s
one of the first things he learned about himself and it''s one of
the biggest things he has to hide. In Palmer''s town being a wringer
is an honor, a tradition passed down from father to son. Palmer
can''t stop himself from being a wringer just like he can''t stop
himself from growing one year older, just like he can''t stand up to
a whole town––right? Newbery Medal winner Jerry Spinelli''s most
powerful novel yet is a gripping tale of how one boy learns how not
to be afraid.
