The Worst

Their eighth grade was the best, and the worst.
Then, on the last day of school, a high school student showed up with a gun.
For the boys and girl in “Team Bomb Shelter,” their final year at Jerome Marco K-8 was packed with disasters, inside jokes and a talent show. They called the daily chaos of middle school “the worst” — and somehow meant it as a compliment.
It should have ended with a celebration.
Instead, everything changed.
“Nobody and nothing prepared us to deal with what happened when our middle school was attacked by a school shooter. We never saw it coming.”
THE WORST spins stories of friendship, joy, courage, and choosing hope when fear takes over. Fast-paced, funny, and unforgettable, it explores the moments that define who we become when things fall apart.
“Binder is a skilled writer and performer…”
