A Sydney Taylor Notable Book

Inspired by a real-life incident, this riveting novel explores discrimination and antisemitism and reveals their dangerous impact.

Would you defend the indefensible?

That's what seniors Logan March and Cade Crawford are asked to do when a favorite teacher instructs a group of students to argue for the Final Solution - the Nazi plan for the genocide of the Jewish people. Logan and Cade decide they must take a stand, and soon their actions draw the attention of the student body, the administration, and the community at large. But not everyone feels as Logan and Cade do - after all, isn't a school debate just a school debate? It's not long before the situation explodes, and acrimony and anger result.

Based on true events, The Assignment asks: What does it take for tolerance, justice, and love to prevail?

"An important look at a critical moment in history through a modern lens showcasing the power of student activism." (SLJ)

“A riveting, important, and thought-provoking read. Unputdownable and unforgettable.” —Leah Cypess, author of The Death Sworn series

I've never heard an audio book as transformative as this one! Each performer radiated the true essence of their character, bringing this book to life. This gripping story was not only engaging, but I learned about things connecting to World II that I had never heard before. I loved the relationship between Cade and Logan. Their friendship and light-handed romance is just perfect. This audio book should be utilized in schools---but it's eye opening message against hatred, bigotry and injustice should be heard by everyone. Highly recommend!

Blown Away By This Audio Book!

Sometimes overwhelming, THE ASSIGNMENT is an important story, and well worth reading. It's an unusual format for a YA novel, which takes a little getting used to, but it's well, very well worth it. I love the inclusion of several adult perspectives, which really brings the whole situation into light.

This book is emotional, and deals with hate--both accidental and intentional--, how it grows, and what it takes to stop it--courage and a determination to stand up and say "No. This ends with me."

Beautiful, beautiful book.

This is a book for our times.

Makes me wish I would have stood up to some of my teachers more. It inspired me.

This is one of my favorite books. It has a great message. I liked how the relationship between Logan and Cade was handled. I also liked that this audiobook had multiple narrators.

Amazing

I would love to see this book adopted in schools. To have access to the fine performances captured within this audiobook production is an incredible gift. I bought both the printed copy of this book and the audiobook, as I had suspected that I would want to share this with other parents of teens as well as my own children.

Superb performance of a charged topic

I LOVED this book. I am a huge fan of historical fiction and I highly appreciate the commemoration this brings to so many marginalized and oppressed groups, just because of the color of their skin or their religion practice. It is a true shame that in 2023, when we are supposed to be open and accepting to humankind, racism and white supremacy still exists and is practiced. We are all one species- we are human.

Wonderful- A great lesson

This was a great read/listen. The narration was spot on and I've been looking for a read on this subject for some time.

great book

I liked that this book helped you sort of learn about the past and show you what the right thing to do is. The thing I didn’t like about this book was that it took a few chapters to get into and keep me interested.

It promotes a great story.

Wiemer’s novel, based on an actual event, kept me wide awake and fully engaged during a recent long drive. At one point, I pulled over so I could replay a particular scene. Whoever lined up the actors, who deliver the chapters from alternating points of view, deserves high praise. The teen protagonists Logan and Cade worked their way into my heart so deeply I wanted to find and embrace them, tell them I am not sure I would have had their courage at 18, or even at my current age of 70. Everyone should read this book immediately!

Moving, Powerful Fiction
