Hasday DetailsDetails ReviewsReviews April 20, 1999, was an ordinary school day for students at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado. Classrooms were full of students finishing their last assignments before final exams. When the bell rang for the first lunch period, some went outside to enjoy the warm weather. But minutes later, the sound of gunfire pierced the peaceful spring day. At 11:19 A.M., two students, Eric Harris and Dyland Klebold, unleashed a long-planned murderous assault on their fellow classmates at Columbine, leaving twelve students and one teacher dead before taking their own lives. Author Judy L. Hasday carefully examines one of the worst incidents of school violence in American history, including accounts from witnesses and survivors.Publication Date: 07/01/2012Copyright: 2013Pages: 48Trim Size: 7 1/2 x 9Illustrations: Illus. with color photographsGrade Level: 5–9Age Level: 10–14LC Number: 2011045276Lexile: 970ATOS Reading Level: 6.8ATOS Points: 1.0Quiz #: 152865AR Interest Level: MGDewey: 373.17 For Reluctant ReadersFormatsFormatISBNList PriceDiscount PriceLibrary Bound Book978-0-7660-4013-7$27.27$20.45eBook978-0-7660-4397-8$27.27$20.45 ". . . both powerful and informative."TriState Young Adult Book Review Committee, September 2012"The quality of these short titles is good, and the informational texts are written in a way that lend themselves to a cover-to-cover read."School Library Journal, December 2012 Loading… Other books in Disasters—People in Peril 1 Loading… Loading… eBook: 978-0-7660-4397-8 List Price: $27.27 Discount Price: $20.45 + Add to wish list Library Bound Book: 978-0-7660-4013-7 List Price: $27.27 Discount Price: $20.45 + Add to wish list Please log in Log in or register to create a wish list.
