What Do Fish Have To Do With Anything? and Other Stories

In this extraordinary collection, Newbery Medalist Avi charts the turning points in the lives of seven young protagonists. Among others in these stories, you will meet William of "What Do Fish Have to Do with Anything?," who wonders why he shouldn't ask questions that have no answers. A minister's son, the baddest of the bad, is dared to be good in "The Goodness of Matt Kaiser." And in the chilling tale "Pets," Eve is haunted by the ghosts of her cats.

Always with a surprise built in, an angle unseen, these are stories that step just beyond the edge of the everyday.
