Sixteen-year old Dallas is sentenced to the Girls' Rehabilitation Center for holding up a store at gunpoint--the ultimate episode in a petty-crime spree she had undertaken. Dallas may have been prematurely labeled as bad by her father, but she is clear about her own responsibility for her sentence and insightful about the low self-esteem she and so many of her fellow delinquents share. An ALA Best Book for Young Adults.
