The Battle of Jericho written by Sharon M. Draper is about a boy name Jericho; a high school student who is asked or invited to pledge for the club called Warriors of Distinction; a club that has the newest clothes, shoes and have the best parties. In the story Jericho is very determined to be apart of this club for those reasons. Jericho is forced to make choices that hes not comfortable with, just to be apart of this club. Stuff like, jumping out of two story windows, beatings, and do terrible stuff, just for this club. This club Jericho thinks is worth everything he has, and he will do anything to be apart of it. This causes him to loose his best friend and cousin Josh.
Overall I really enjoyed this book, and hoping to read November Blues, next in the story line.
