Despre această carte electronică

Key Selling Points

  • Lo Simpson Starts a Revolution takes on the adolescent experiences of growing apart in a friendship, finding new friends, allowing yourself the space to grow up at your own pace and having the strength to stand up for what's right, even when the issue doesn't directly affect you.
