Hero Type Paperback - 2010
by Barry Lyga
After saving a girl from being murdered, Kevin is hailed as a hero. However, after Kevin is seen removing patriotic ribbons from his car bumper, the town calls him unpatriotic. Now Kevin is questioning what supporting the troops--or even saying the pledge of allegiance--actually means.
Summary
Everyone is treating Kevin as a hero. He was in the right place and the right time and he saved a girl from being murdered. Only Kevin knows though, why he was able to save her. Things get even more complicated when Kevin is seen removing two patriotic Support the Troops” ribbons from his car bumper. Now the town that lauded him as a hero turns on him, calling him unpatriotic. Kevin, who hadn't thought much about it up to then, becomes politcially engaged, suddenly questioning what exactly supporting the troops or even saying the pledge of allegiance every day means.
