520    Action-packed, humorous, and bittersweet, this 1970s-era 
       coming-of-age novel is more relevant than ever--exploring 
       how a second-generation immigrant kid in a new hometown 
       must navigate bullying, unexpected friendships, and the 
       struggle of keeping both feet firmly planted in two very 
       different cultures. It's 1979, and thirteen-year-old 
       Joseph Nissan can't help but notice that small-town Texas 
       has something in common with Revolution-era Iran: an 
       absence of fellow Jews. And in such a small town it seems 
       obvious that a brown kid like him was bound to make 
       friends with Latinos--which is a plus, since his new buds,
       the Ybarra twins, have his back. But when the Iran hostage
       crisis, two neighborhood bullies, and the local reverend's
       beautiful daughter put him in all sorts of danger, Joseph 
       must find new ways to cope at home and at school. As he 
       struggles to trust others and stay true to himself, a 
       fiercely guarded family secret keeps his father at a 
       distance, and even his piano teacher, Miss Eleanor--who is
       like a grandmother to him--can't always protect him. But 
       Joseph is not alone, and with a little help from his 
       friends he finds the courage to confront his fears and 
       discovers he can inspire others to find their courage, 
       too.
