Liar & Spy
By Rebecca Stead
180 pages
 
When seventh-grader Georges' dad loses his job, he and his parents move to a more affordable Brooklyn apartment building.  At home, Georges spends lots of time alone- his father is trying to start his own business, and his mother is always working extra hours at the hospital.  At school, he has become the new target of Dallas the class bully.  He is grateful to meet Safer, the strange boy who is a self-appointed spy for the apartment building. However, spying with Safer draws him into activities that feel wrong, and Georges must choose between what he feels is right, and his only friend. Grade 6.
