Description

Eighty grader Jayson Linden has had a stutter his whole life.

Although his fellow classmates can sometimes be mean, Jayson tries not to let it get to him- he enjoys playing basketball and spending time with his friends. Then Jayson's best friend, Gloria, is kicked off the debate team because of her stutter, and Jayson starts to notice other injustices happening at their school. To make their middle school a more inclusive place and to stand up for his friends, Jayson decides to run against Mack, the most popular boy at school and captain of the basketball team, for student body president. But as the campaign heats up, will Jayson be able to face his fear of public speaking and win the election?

This poignant middle-grade debut from the middle schooler who electrified the nation with his bravery during the 2020 presidential election, Brayden Harrington, with David Ritz, reminds us all that nothing can hold us back when we're standing up for what's right.
