Life and the rules seem clear-cut for 6th grader Rhoda in the summer of 1953. All the kids in her Brooklyn neighborhood know they should avoid Mr. & Mrs. Rose (they must be Russian spies!) and the Mancy children (they’re poor and different!). But when Rhoda begins to think for herself, she makes surprising discoveries about truth and friendship.
