520    "In 1956, one year before federal troops escorted the 
       Little Rock 9 into Central High School, fourteen year old 
       Jo Ann Allen was one of twelve African-American students 
       who broke the color barrier and integrated Clinton High 
       School in Tennessee. At first things went smoothly for the
       Clinton 12, but then outside agitators interfered, pitting
       the townspeople against one another. Uneasiness turned 
       into anger, and even the Clinton Twelve themselves 
       wondered if the easier thing to do would be to go back to 
       their old school. Jo Ann--clear-eyed, practical, tolerant,
       and popular among both black and white students--found 
       herself called on as the spokesperson of the group. But 
       what about just being a regular teen? This is the 
       heartbreaking and relatable story of her four months 
       thrust into the national spotlight and as a trailblazer in
       history. Based on original research and interviews and 
       featuring backmatter with archival materials and notes 
       from the authors on the co-writing process"--|cProvided by
