A middle-school star reporter has a tough time taking a stance on a story when her cowriter is also her crush.
Samantha really enjoys writing for her school newspaper, particularly when sheâs assigned to write with Michael Lawrence, who happens to also be her crush. Sheâs thrilled to work with himâbut less thrilled to realize they disagree on how the article should be written. The topic is whether students should pay for extracurricular activities, such as sports, and Samantha thinks itâs a good idea. After all, baseball isnât as important as math or language arts, she argues. But try telling that to the star pitcher on the schoolâs baseball team! Maybe Samanthaâs headline should be Trouble in the Newsroom!
Allâs not fair in love and journalism in this newsworthy addition to a tween-savvy series.
