THE MOCKINGBIRDS named to Indie Next List for kids! (Winter 2010-2011)

Thanks indie booksellers! THE MOCKINGBIRDS was named to the Winter 2010-2011 Indie Next List for kids! Lots of great company on this list so I'm thrilled! Here's what the Tattered Cover had to say in its blurb that'll be included in the list.

The Mockingbirds, by Daisy Whitney

"Themis Academy is a co-ed boarding school of the highest caliber. According to the administration, everything is perfect there. According to the students, that's not quite correct. In response, The Mockingbirds, a very organized judicial force of students is formed. Alex never dreamed that she would need their services — until she is date-raped. This is a very strong story that is difficult to put down, with an important message for everyone." — Jackie Blem, Tattered Cover Bookstore, Denver, Colorado
