Description
Eleven-year-old William “Scoob” is expecting a quiet spring break, but instead finds himself on an unexpected road trip with his white grandmother, G’ma, in her RV. As they travel, what begins as an exhilarating escape from trouble becomes a powerful journey through family secrets and the history of the civil rights era, exposing Scoob to the racism and resilience that shaped G’ma’s past. Blending adventure, humor, and heartfelt reflection, this compelling middle-grade novel explores identity, family, friendship, and the importance of confronting history. Nic Stone’s engaging storytelling makes the past immediate and personal while inviting readers to consider how its lessons continue to matter today.
