Mighty inside
(Audiobooks and music)

Compact discs.

Narrated by Kevin R. Free.

Melvin Robinson wants a strong, smooth, He-Man voice that lets him say what he wants, when he wants--especially to his crush Millie Takazawa, and Gary Ratliff, who constantly puts him down. But the thought of starting high school is only making his stutter worse. And Melvin's growing awareness that racism is everywhere--including in his own hometown of Spokane--is making him realize that he can't mutely stand by. His new friend Lenny, a fast-talking, sax-playing Jewish boy, encourages Melvin to take some risks. Will Melvin be able to speak up when the time comes?
