Discussion Junction is a monthly book discussion group for tweens ages 9-12 with a participating adult. (No older or younger children, please.)

This month we're discussing The Boys in the Boat by Daniel Brown. 

Out of the depths of the Great Depression comes the astonishing tale of nine working-class boys from the American West who at the 1936 Olympics showed the world what true grit really meant. With rowers who were the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington's eight-oar crew was never expected to defeat the elite East Coast teams, yet they did, going on to shock the world by challenging the German boat rowing for Adolf Hitler.
