Set against the backdrop of environmental degradation, a 15-year-old boy grapples with the encroaching threat of a slag heap from nearby strip mining. As he navigates his conflicting desires to protect his family's home and seek a better future, the story explores themes of resilience, family, and the impact of industrialization on rural life. This 25th anniversary edition of a Newbery Award-winning novel brings renewed attention to its poignant narrative and rich character development.
