When Ash gets kicked off her school' s news show, she becomes a renegade reporter--and makes a big discovery about technology and her fellow students' privacy. Ash and her friends are reporters. They were ready to lead their school news show, The News at Nine, sponsored by Van Ness Media, when an unfortunate incident involving a dancing teacher, an irresponsibly reported story, and a viral video got them kicked off the crew. So Ash, Maya, and Brielle decide to start their own news show, The Underground News. And soon they stumble on a big lead- Van Ness Media, the educational company that provides their school' s software, has been gathering data from all the kids at school. Their drawings, their journals, even their movements are being recorded and cataloged by Van Ness Media. But why? Ash and her friends are determined to learn the truth and report it.
Advance Praise for The Renegade Reporters"Absolutely delightful! We need more renegade reporters in the world--please! --RJ Palacio, bestselling author of WonderPraise for Elissa Brent Weissman' s The Length of a StringSydney Taylor Honor Book Told in two voices which Weissman weaves together like a double helix, this is a story of family ties, some of which are broken by war, some broken by choice, some broken by unanswered questions. But by the end, readers will see that love and faith--from strangers, from friends, and from long-gone ancestors--have the power to knit us together with strings that are so much stronger than genetics. I loved this sweet refuge of a book. --Kathi Appelt, Newbery Honor-winning author of The Underneath and The True Blue Scouts of Sugar Man SwampYou' ll yearn with this wonderful heroine as she searches for long-ago Anna and her own hidden past. The characters are unforgettable, and the ending is entirely satisfying. A book readers will love; I know I did. --Patricia Reilly Giff, Newbery Honor-winning author of Lily' s CrossingThe Length of a String is a resounding continuum of connection and search for self. As universal as it is personal. A must read. --Rita Williams-Garcia, Newbery Honor-winning author of One Crazy Summer
