Every Wednesday, the students in his class go to separate churches for religious classes. However, as a Presbyterian, Holling doesn’t have anywhere to go. So instead, he stays behind with his teacher, Mrs. Baker. She doesn’t seem pleased about this, and quickly Holling believes that she has it in for him. Each week, Mrs. Baker gives Holling menial tasks, until finally she begins to force him to read the works of William Shakespeare. This backfires, however, as Holling begins to enjoy the plays. So much so, that he even gets a roll in the community’s Holiday Extravaganza. Life at home for Holling isn’t any better. He is constantly lost in his father’s shadow, who forces Holling to continue in the family business. His sister tries to rebel, but is also forced to follow her father’s wishes. With the war in Vietnam as the backdrop, tensions rise as news of lost husbands overseas begin to come in. This coming-of-age story focuses on one boy finding the strength within and standing up for himself and others.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CLASSROOM COMPLETE PRESS","offers":[{"title":"eBook - .PDF","offer_id":43230821613781,"sku":"CCP2716","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Print Book","offer_id":43875702079701,"sku":"CC2716","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BOTH","offer_id":43875718562005,"sku":"CC+P2716","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0272\/5078\/6440\/products\/CCP2716_cover_d96222a4-8acc-432d-9364-ce31eb874ebd.jpg?v=1670427468","url":"https:\/\/classroomcompletepress.com\/products\/the-wednesday-wars-novel-study-guide-ccp2716","provider":"CLASSROOM COMPLETE PRESS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
