From the PublisherPraise for Zero Tolerance:
"After turning in a paring knife she accidentally brought to school with her lunch, a high-achieving, rule-following seventh-grade girl is suspended, and her case becomes a media sensation. . . . Provocative and fun, from a master of the school story." —Kirkus Reviews
"This compelling novel could also spark a discussion about the slippery nature of rules and how they are enforced." —School Library Journal
"This will make provocative discussion fodder, and it will also encourage kids to think more deeply about their relationship with rules and approval." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
