Descriere magazin:
Based on a true story, Prisoner 88 follows 10-year-old Jake, who is sent to an Idaho prison for killing a man who had threatened his father. Issues of racism, justice, literacy, and frontier life inform Jake\'s story, with a compelling first-person voice that instantly transports the reader to the American West of 1885. Illustrations. What if you were ten years old and thrown into prison with hardened criminals? That\'s just what happens to Jake Oliver Evans. Inspired by a true account of a prisoner in the Idaho Territorial Penitentiary in 1885, Jake\'s story is as affecting as it is shocking. Convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to five years, Jake is taken under the wing of a young guard and the kindly warden, as well as a few fellow prisoners. He is taught to read and given a job tending hogs at a nearby farm. In prison, Jake finds a home he has never had in a place most people are desperate to leave. But when he has to make a choice about right and wrong during an explosive escape attempt, Jake jeopardizes his friendships and his security. Debut novelist Leah Pileggi introduces a strong yet vulnerable character in an exciting and harrowing story of a child growing up on his own in America\'s Old West.
