Summary
Sixth grader Benjamin Pratt loves history, which makes going to the historic Duncan Oakes School a pretty cool thing. <P><P>But a wave of commercialization is hitting the area and his beloved school is slated to be torn down to make… room for an entertainment park. This would be most kids' dream--except there's more to the developers than meets the eye... and more to the school. <P>Because weeks before the wrecking ball is due to strike, Ben finds an old leather pouch that contains a parchment scroll with a note three students wrote in 1791. <P>The students call themselves the Keepers of the School, and it turns out they're not the only secret group to have existed at Duncan Oakes. <P>The first in a six-book series, We the Children follows Ben, his tech-savvy friend, Jill, and the class know-it-all, Robert, as they uncover a remarkable history and use it to protect the school. <P><b>Lexile: 860L</b>
