Meet Clara Johansson: brave, independent, and clever. She's been a Manhattan newsie ever since her parents died when she was young, going by the name Red (for her naturally red hair). So what if she's the only girl in the group? The newsies are great, and she loves selling papes with them. But when greedy Joseph Pulitzer raises the newsie's buying price from 50¢ per hundred to 60¢ per hundred, the newsies are outraged. There's only one thing left to do...go on strike! When Red tags along with Jack, Davey, and Boots to ask the notorious Spot Conlon if he wants to join their strike, her life unfolds into an adventure she'd never thought she'd have. ______________________________________ Highest Rankings! #3 in Spot Conlon (September 27th, 2024) #1 in Chapter Book (October 18th, 2024) #15 in Broadway (June 3rd, 2024) #1 in Newsies (OH MY GOSH WHAT) (February 3rd, 2025)
