(1) 4-6 When Napoleon Ellis arrives from Dominica at Richard's parochial school, Richard dreams of their becoming the next Gold Dust Twins of the 1975 Red Sox. Self-assured Richard can't imagine anyone who wouldn't want the same, but Napoleon complicates things. Set against the backdrop of the 1970s' Boston busing crisis, this provocative novel tells a piece of the city's history and the more intimate story of a transforming friendship.
