The war is over, but the threat of communism and the Cold War loom over the United States. In Detroit, Michigan, twelve-year-old Marjorie Campbell struggles with the ups and downs of family life, dealing with her veteran father's unpredictable outbursts, keeping her mother's stash of banned library books a secret, and getting along with her new older "brother", the teenager her family took in after his veteran father's death. When a new girl from Germany transfers to Marjorie's class, Marjorie finds herself torn between befriending Inga and pleasing her best friend, Bernadette, by writing in a slam book that spreads rumors about Inga. Marjorie seems to be confronting enemies everywhereÌat school, at the library, in her neighborhood, and even in the news. In all this turmoil, Marjorie tries to find her own voice and figure out what is right and who the real enemies actually are."-- Amazon.com. 541 $d 20170316. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Cold War $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nineteen fifties $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Middle school students $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Detroit (Mich.) $v Fiction. 941 $a 7 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20240702043027.0 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430020437.0 952 $l VQPC384 $d 20230114015423.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006110244.0 952 $l MGPD463 $d 20180718024810.0 952 $l ELPC715 $d 20180116112440.0 952 $l VGPC334 $d 20170527133715.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8C95688E3F7D11E78C4957BEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
