Big Words (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780008789848)

Dyslexia friendly! Award-winning author Luke Palmer masterfully captures the complex dynamics of teenage friendship in this compelling story of misadventure, resentment, and reconciliation. Biggest goes first--always. That's one of the unspoken rules of Kiln, the forbidden wasteland where Sam and his friends hang out. So when Sam comes up with a plan to go sledding on the rusted hood of an old car, he goes first--to show the others how it's done. His friends aren't so sure. But at Kiln, there's no complaining. No backing down. Those are the other rules--even when they lead to disaster. Will their friendship survive the consequences?
