They murdered him.A classic novel about a boy who refuses to follow in line and sell chocolates for the school encountering the wrath of the school bullies. Readers are left asking how far would they go to stand up for what they believe in. Themes of violence, peer pressure, individualism, conformity, power and greed are addressed within the novel.This novel stands up today - over 30 years later. I found myself riveted to the story and what would happen next for Jerry.
