Book excerpt: In Greg and the Mural, Greg McNair has won Trinidad Community's "My Dreams of Tomorrow Today!" mural contest! Greg and a group of volunteers have been working for weeks to paint Greg's mural and clean up the park. Everyone in the community is excited for him--even his cousin James. But Greg's competition for the prize isn't happy about losing. He and his friends are using graffiti around town to show who should have won. James decides Rock's Boys are going to pay back the Crush 'Em Boys with some graffiti of their own. This leads to war, and to Greg's mural being destroyed. Will Greg follow James's lead and get revenge? Or will he continue to make good choices and let the police handle the situation? Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards.
