{"product_id":"meely-labauve-9780375758164","title":"Meely LaBauve","description":"Fifteen-year-old Meely LaBauve is growing up on Catahoula Bayou and living by his wits. Not since Huck Finn rafted down the Mississippi has there been a coming-of-age story like this, told in such an utterly authentic unlettered American voice. From a charming encounter with first love in the Canciennes' corn patch to an adventurous paddle through wild and timeless places little explored, Ken Wells has cooked up a zesty gumbo of a book--rich, poignant, and often hilarious. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e* An American Library Association\/YALSA best book of the year\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ken Wells\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Random House Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/14\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.19w x 0.57d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780375758164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.3\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 8\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e58984 \/ Meely LaBauve\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e South Carolina Childrens, Junior and Young Adult Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Virginia Readers Choice Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKen Wells is a senior writer and features editor for page one of The Wall Street Journal.
