A review by janerose123
The Lemonade Crime by Jacqueline Davies
5.0
This was a fun read and I like the characters. Jessie supports her brother. Evan wants to back the money from Scott and Scott stole the money from Evan but in the end, Scott gives it to Evan. It was nicely written and I like the ending of the story. I use a paperback edition of this and I'm going to give it 5 stars:D
Following the laws of our legal system, Evan and Jessie’s fourth-grade class develops a courtroom on the playground, putting Scott Spencer, a stated thief, on trial. They create a fair courtroom—with a judge, witnesses, a jury of their peers—and surprising results.
As she explores the difficulties of fairness, Jacqueline Davies once again reveals how good she is at understanding the complex emotions of children this age.
