About the Book

When students leave the classroom, interesting things can happen, especially when they write.

These sophomores from Waverly High venture out of their comfort zones in rural eastern Nebraska and do a kind of multi-genre research project by interviewing people, learning about various businesses, and researching native species, local events, and write even a little bit of poetry when they look at the landscape.

The results are enjoyable and interesting.


About the Author

These students are diverse as the environment around them. Seemingly bland, Mid-American, they play a little Hendrix on the guitar, hunt coons, race cars, gobble up books, and, heck, some have been out of the county! This is their first book.
