A deadly plague has devastated Earth, killing all the adults. Lisa and her younger brother Todd are struggling to stay alive in a world where no one is safe. Other children along Grand Avenue need help as well. They band together to find food, shelter, and protection from dangerous gangs invading their neighborhood. When Tom Logan and his army start making threats, Lisa comes up with a plan and leads her group to a safer place. But how far is she willing to go to protect what's hers?

so-so

Cute middle grade graphic novel. Great artwork and nice themes about working together but it‘s definitely not a crossover book-the writing needed more. My 6th grader loved it though!

I read this YAbook every year with my 8th graders, as part of our Dystopian societies unit. They and I absolutely relish every chapter, and beg for a sequel. Alas, Mr Nelson, never did write book 2 to this book, which was published in 1970. If you like The Hunger Games, you'll like this one as well.

EricaReads LOVE that you teach a Dystopian Societies unit! How cool! 8y
