by Robert Sergel (Author)
A boy's book report on Reconstruction Era vigilantes known as the Bald Knobbers sends him on a quest for justice.
Middle-schooler Cole's book report on Bald Knobbers, Reconstruction Era vigilantes, bears an uncanny resonance with his life. Donning a homemade Bald Knobber mask, Cole seeks to right wrongs perpetrated by his divorcing parents, mom's new boyfriend, the school bully and his cat, Daisy. Like the real Bald Knobbers, Cole discovers the consequences of taking the law into your own hands.
