About the Book Nothing But the Truth
Nothing But the Truth by Avi is a compelling young adult novel that delves into themes of truth, patriotism, and media influence. Set in the small town of Harrison, New Hampshire, it follows ninth-grader Philip Malloy, who aspires to join the high school track team. However, his poor performance in English class, taught by Ms. Narwin, threatens his eligibility.
Frustrated, Philip hums along with the national anthem during homeroom, prompting Ms. Narwin to ask him to stop. This seemingly minor incident escalates when Philip’s parents and a local politician seize the opportunity to address issues of patriotism and free speech. The situation quickly spirals into a media frenzy, portraying Philip as a patriotic hero and Ms. Narwin as a villain.
The novel’s unique documentary style, incorporating diary entries, memos, and news articles, underscores the subjectivity of truth and the powerful impact of media on public perception.

It takes a long time to gather all the data for our new book page format with more useful descriptions, themes, and activity ideas. Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
