List Pick
From Leslie Connor, award-winning author of Waiting
for Normal and Crunch, comes a soaring and heartfelt
story about love, forgiveness, and how innocence
makes us all rise up. All Rise for the Honorable Perry
T. Cook is a powerful story, perfect for fans of Wonder
and When You Reach Me.
Eleven-year-old Perry was born and raised by his
mom at the Blue River Co-ed Correctional Facility in
tiny Surprise, Nebraska. His mom is a resident on Cell
Block C, and so far Warden Daugherty has made it
possible for them to be together. That is, until a new
district attorney discovers the truth—and Perry is
removed from the facility and forced into a foster
home.
When Perry moves to the “outside” world, he feels
trapped. Desperate to be reunited with his mom,
Perry goes on a quest for answers about her past
crime.
ReadAs he gets closer to the truth, he will discover
more
that love makes people resilient no matter where they

Loved it...reminiscent of Wonder!

Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2016
What is family? Leslie Connor adroitly steers her
readers into seeing that family can be blood
relatives, but that all too often, family members are
chosen members of your inner circle. Perry and his
mom know this to their core. His best friend Zoey
and her mom understand... See more

Wonderful, heartfelt book--you'll laugh and cry

and fall in love with Perry and his mom
Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2016
I love this newest novel by Leslie Connor. Not only
has she created a world that most of us (happily)
know nothing about--the world of an incarcerated
mom parenting her son from prison--but she has
done so without forcing us into sadness or despair.

A story of surprises right from the start.

Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2016
I chose this book because it popped up as a
recommended read when I finishing another. I had
background on the book and started it with zero
knowledge of what it was about. It grabbed me from
the start and never let go. It references the 7 Habits

So much hope
Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2017
Thank you, Ms Connor, for writing a story about
hope. The families in this story are struggling but as
a reader, I never gave up on them because they
never gave up on themselves. I recommend this
story for both boys and girls in 4th to 6th grade.

Pre-read this to make sure appropriate for my
