Myers, Walter Dean Riot 164 pgs. Egmont 2009 $16.99 Content PG for racial issues. This historical fiction is set in New York City during the 1860s when Irish immigrants opposed being drafted by president Lincoln. Claire is a 15-year old girl who is the biracial daughter of a black man and an Irish woman. The screenplay format is a bit of an adjustment, but not a big deal once you begin reading and get used to it. ADVISABLE- MS, HS Shauna, reading teacher.
