Blaze Union for Puddin' Head Schools

In a world ruled by divisive knuckleheads, there are only two choices: conform or resist. This over-the-top dystopian satire, "Blaze Union and the Puddin' Head Schools," invites readers to dive into a world of extremist absurdities.

Welcome to Island Nation, where the supreme prime minister has not only turned schools into battlegrounds between spoon-wielding Puddin' Heads and vengeful Sweeties, but has also brainwashed the country into treating those with "large" hands as second-class citizens. Narrated by a sarcastic teacher suspended for inspiring students, this Mark Twain Book Award finalist is the "gloriously absurd" adventure (Kirkus Reviews) of fourteen-year-old Blaze Union, a fiery teen expelled for playing guitar and soccer with slightly large hands.

Undaunted, Blaze embarks on a mission to lead the nation's wildly dysfunctional schools, swiftly rising in popularity and shocking the powerful knuckleheads in charge. One of them presents Blaze with the deal of a lifetime, but it comes with a terrible condition. Will Blaze accept this unbelievable offer, or will she resist and risk plunging Puddin' Head Schools into further chaos?

Catapult into an epic journey of whackadoodle schools, sensational showdowns, and a quest for liberation like no other. And don't forget your spoon helmet—you're going to need it.
