When Ashley Brown was five years old, her parents left her in the care of her grandma, though her mother promised to return for her. At fourteen, Ashley is still living with her grandmother in Highland, a city on the outskirts of Maryville, a place known as the "ghetto." Ashley has shadowy memories of her mother taking her to her favorite place, the library. Reading a good book allows Ashley to escape her poverty and crime infested community. One afternoon after listening to the Mayor's press conference, Ashley discovers that the Mayor is taking away the community library. In spite of being put on punishment for a week by her grandma for defending herself from the school bullies, Ashley feels it is worth the risk to sneak out of her apartment to mail a letter she has written to the Mayor about keeping the library open. Every day homeless people approach her and beg for something to eat or for money. The most frequent requests come from two disheveled individuals Ashley has nicknamed "Orphan Annie" and the "businessman bum." As if escaping the homeless people isn't enough, there are a bunch of bullies who harass Ashley. One day, the bullies chase her into an alley. They force her to the ground and Ashley is afraid of what will happen next. This is one time Ashley wished she listen to her grandma. Read an excerpt Grandma, Grandma, what is so wrong I said. I jumped out of my chair and run toward the TV. That stupid mayor. I dont believe it! Shes shutting down the library. The only library we have in this community and replacing it with some, some business store, Grandma yelled. She scowled at the TV. I dont believe the stupid mayor. You see what I mean about people in power making decisions that ruin your life, and you have no say about anything. Oh, oh, Grandma, thats so terrible. The library is the only place I have left thats positive in the community. Ashley, dont you get it They dont give a hoot about people from our neighborhood. All they care about is making money off of the poor, she said. Then a quick flash the mayor came on the television. Suddenly, my knees felt weak and heavy. I felt like I was ready to collapse. Grandma, what is, is the mayors name I asked. I struggled not to stumble. Im not for sure. Some person name Baldwin, a Mrs. Baldwin I guess. Oh watch they are showing that evil witch on television right now, Grandma said. She glared at the television. Grandma was going nuts. I desperately tried not to break down, Grandma didnt have a clue that Id met Mrs. Baldwin, and I wasnt about to tell her. Luckily, Grandma was going crazy about the mayor; she didnt notice that Im emotionally falling apart.
