Pay it Forward
3 journalers for this copy...
The story of how a boy who believed in the goodness of human nature set out to change the world.
Pay It Forward is a wondrous and moving novel about Trevor McKinney, a twelve-year-old boy in a small California town who accepts the challenge that his teacher gives his class, a chance to earn extra credit by coming up with a plan to change the world for the better -- and to put that plan into action.
The idea that Trevor comes up with is so simple and so naïve that when others learn of it they are dismissive. Even Trevor himself begins to doubt when his "pay it forward" plan seems to founder on a combination of bad luck and the worst of human nature.

Mailed as part of the Paperback Surprise Bookbox #10. I hope you enjoy it!
Received this BookBox surprise. Plan to keep this one and send the box on with new books (so new I haven't registered them on BC, but will.) Plan to journal each book after its read.
A student borrowed my copy and had an accident, and this copy was purchased from an online bookstore, as a replacement. It will continue to be read by future students!
