The candid, fierce, and universally acclaimed middle grade novel about sisterhood and sexual abuse, by two-time Newbery Honor winner and #1 New York Times best selling author Kimberly Brubaker Bradley
Ten-year-old Della has always had her older sister, Suki: When their mom went to prison, Della had Suki. When their mom's boyfriend took them in, Della had Suki. When that same boyfriend did something so awful they had to run fast, Della had Suki. Suki is Della's own wolf-her protector. But who has been protecting Suki? Della might get told off for swearing at school, but she has always known how to keep quiet where it counts. Then Suki tries to kill herself, and Della's world turns so far upside down, it feels like it's shaking her by the ankles. Maybe she's been quiet about the wrong things. Maybe it's time to be loud.
In this powerful novel that explodes the stigma around child sexual abuse and leavens an intense tale with compassion and humor, Kimberly Brubaker Bradley tells a story about two sisters, linked by love and trauma, who must find their own voices before they can find their way back to each other.

Shout for the middle grade set: Though this is fiction where Shout is memoir, stories demystifying and de-shaming child sexual abuse are vital for kids. Like Shout, Fighting Words takes on the topic in a way that's compassionate, appropriate, and helpful. It's framed within a story that is sometimes very difficult and punctuated with moments of humor and joy.
Powerhouse protagonist: Ten-year-old Della, our heroine, is why this book works: She's hilarious, vulnerable, and lost, a loudmouth learning how to use her voice and volume for what matters most.
Kimberly Brubaker Bradley: Award winner Kim Bradley writes Della's story from personal, lived experience with child sexual abuse. She addresses the topic fearlessly and empathetically, and with the clear insight, age-appropriateness, and surprising levity we have all come to love, expect, and cherish in a Kimberly Brubaker Bradley novel.
Sisterhood: Della and her sixteen-year-old sister, Suki, are inextricable until they're forced apart. You adore these two girls together-their loyalty, their love, their profound admiration for each other-and you root for them to grow individually, knowing it's their only path back to each other.
Boys need this novel too: First, boys also experience abuse; this book is for them. Also, the story's nuanced take on boys' behavior toward girls explores the roots of toxic masculinity and the misplaced notion that "boys will be boys."
