I am reviewing a copy of We Could Be Heroes through Simon and Schuster Children’s Publishing/Atheneum Books for Young Readers:
Hank finds himself in trouble after an incident that involved the boys bathroom and a horribly sad book his teacher is having his class read. Hank finds himself with a week’s suspension, a hardcover that is slightly charred as well as the attention of the new girl Maisie Huang, attention he certainly did not expect.
Maisie has been looking for a kid who is brave enough to help her with her mission. She is determined to save her neighbors dog, Booler, Booler has seizures and his owner Mr Jorgensen keeps him tied to a tree, because of the seizures. Knowing what is happening to Booler makes him even sadder than the book did, he has Autism and knows what it is like to be treated badly because of it.
Hank is determined to show everyone different is not less even if it means he has to get in more trouble in order to prove it. It isn’t long before both Hank and Maisie are baking, brown nosing, and milking coed in order to save Booler. But is Booler the one who needs saving?
I give We Could Be Heroes five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
