Description
In James the Rock's Boys, James McNair's cousin Greg has won Trinidad Community's "My Dreams of Tomorrow Today!" mural contest. James has been forced to help Greg and other volunteers paint the mural and clean up the park. James wishes he could get the same respect and attention Greg is getting. Maybe someday when he's a famous basketball player it will happen. But right now, the losing contestant and his friends are using graffiti to show who should have won. James decides Rock's Boys are going to pay back the Crush 'Em Boys with some graffiti of their own. This leads to war, and to Greg's mural being destroyed. Will James choose to help Greg get revenge? Or will he surprise everyone and change his future in the process? Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Calico is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO.
