The annual Nantucket regatta sets the stage for Hoop's bid to earn his lady's love and a larcenous land developer's party sets the stage for an attack by Godzilla (as only Goldthwait can play him).

Lane Myer (John Cusack) is stuck in a personal hell. A compulsive, adolescent Everyman growing up in Suburbia, USA, not only does he fail to make the prestigious high school ski team (again), but his beloved sweetheart, Beth, also leaves him for Roy, the team's popular, arrogant captain. If this isn't bad enough, he's stuck with a mother who frighteningly experiments--rather than cooks--with food, a brother who builds rockets out of models, and a best friend so desperate for drugs that he settles...

When the girls arrive in Oakland in the summer of 1968, Cecile wants nothing to do with them. She makes them eat Chinese takeout dinners, forbids them to enter her kitchen, and never explains the strange visitors with Afros and black berets who knock on her door. Rather than spend time with them, Cecile sends Delphine, Vonetta, and Fern to a summer camp sponsored by a revolutionary group, the Black Panthers, where the girls get a radical new education.

Director of "Better Off Dead", Savage Steve Hollands, delivers a wonderfully cheesy 80s comedy starring Demi Moore, and John Cusack as an imaginitive young illustrator. Look for 80s legend Bobcat Goldwaithe in a Godzilla suit!

We don't want to jinx it, so we're just going to say: if ever a book deserved to win a gazillion shiny gold awards, it's this one. With exquisite writing, finely-developed characters, and splashes of humor throughout, Williams-Garcia makes a story involving the Black Panthers in 1968 Oakland perfectly accessible to kids.

Nathaniel Adams Coles (March 17, 1919 – February 15, 1965), known professionally as Nat King Cole, was an American musician who first came to prominence as a leading jazz pianist.
