Now with extra material to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Scorpions!
Everyone is getting on Jamal' s case. The kids at school are bugging him, his teachers won' t leave him alone, and the principal' s always giving him a hard time. Even his mama yells at him, upset because Jamal' s brother, Randy, is in jail. The only person he can count on now is his best friend, Tito.
But Crazy Mack wants Jamal to take over as the Scorpions' leader and run crack. Jamal doesn' t want anything to do with gang life, but he doesn' t have a choice— it' s the only way to get money for Randy' s appeal. And as long as he' s got Tito on his side, Jamal knows everything will be okay. . . .
When it was first published in 1988, Scorpions blew readers away. It continues to do so today. This special 25th anniversary edition contains the original Scorpions story, plus an extra Q& A with New York Times bestselling author Walter Dean Myers.
