Sparks will fly in this hip-hop-hot, alternating POV teen novel that mixes social protest and star-crossed romance, from Newbery Medal and Coretta Scott King Honor-winning author Kwame Alexander! He Said, She Said is perfect for fans of Walter Dean Myers and Rachel Vail alike.
He says: Omar T-Diddy Smalls has got it made--a full football ride to UMiami, hero-worship status at school, and pick of any girl at West Charleston High. She says: Football, shmootball. Here's what Claudia Clarke cares about: Harvard, the poor, the disenfranchised, the hungry, the staggering teen pregnancy rate, investigative journalism . . . the list goes on. She does not have a minute to waste on Mr. T-Diddy Smalls and his harem of bimbos.
He Said, She Said is a fun and fresh high school romance from Kwame Alexander that throws these two high school seniors together when they unexpectedly end up leading the biggest social protest this side of the Mississippi--with a lot of help from Facebook and Twitter. The stakes are high, the romance is hot, and when these worlds collide, watch out!
- Opposites Attract: He's the star quarterback with a full ride to UMiami and his pick of any girl at school. She's the Harvard-bound activist who wouldn't give him the time of day.
- A Social Justice Romance: When budget cuts threaten the school's arts programs, these two unlikely leaders use Facebook and Twitter to spark a student-led revolution that's bigger than both of them.
- Dual POV: Told in alternating chapters from his perspective and hers, get both sides of this funny and fiery story as they clash, connect, and maybe even fall in love.
- Jock vs. Activist: He lives for football, and she lives to change the world. Their worlds were never supposed to collide, but now they might be exactly what the other needs.
