In Palmer LaRue's hometown of Waymer, turning ten is the biggest event of a boy's life. But for Palmer, his tenth birthday is not something to look forward to, but something to dread. Then one day, a visitor appears on his windowsill, and Palmer knows that this, more than anything else, is a sign that his time is up. Somehow, he must learn how to stop being afraid and stand up for what he believes in.
Wringeris a powerful tour de force from Newbery Medal winner Jerry Spinelli.

Textul de pe ultima copertă
He
was
not
aware
that
he
ever
stopped
crying.In
his
sleep
a
voice
echoed
down
the
long
dark
barrel
of
a
cannon:
You
have
run
out
of
birthdays.
In
the
morning
he
awoke
suddenly
to
a
flutter
of
wings.
Birthdays are an obsession where Palmer comes from, but if turning a year older means initiation into a violent practice he despises, he'd rather not. Unfortunately, Palmer cannot stop time any more than he can change tradition. So as this next and most important birthday approaches, Palmer knows that it's now or never. Something must be done.
