With subtle mastery and precision, this tough, thought-provoking novel challenges the idea that firearms don't become instruments of destruction and murder until they are placed in human hands. <p/><strong><em>Each book includes a reader's guide. <br></em></strong><br><br><b>Author:</b> Gary Paulsen<br><b>Publisher:</b> Clarion Books<br><b>Published:</b> 11/01/2006<br><b>Pages:</b> 112<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.15lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 6.90h x 4.40w x 0.40d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780152058395<br><b>Age Range:</b> 12-UP<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 6.8<br><b>Point Value:</b> 3<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Middle Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>14483 / Rifle<br>
