Marva has been waiting for this day. After hours of volunteering to knock on doors and register new voters, she knows voting in her first election is a perfect way to start making a difference in the world. Duke is over all things election and just wants to get voting out of the way so he can focus on a way more important event - his band’s first live show. When Marva sees Duke turned away from his polling place, the two embark on a whirlwind adventure to make sure his vote counts. After a day of trying to find the correct polling place and waiting in endless lines, Marva and Duke find kinship in each other beyond their fight for democracy. (Georgia Peach Book Award, 2022) |
