The Trials of Molly Sheldon

Sixteen-year-old Molly Sheldon has always worked at The Happy Hunting Ground, her parents' unique general store in Saphouse Junction, Vermont. Not everyone is so keen on the items they sell, though, and a group of self-appointed moralists are on a mission to get them to stop carrying anything that might threaten "American Family Values." Molly's busy focusing on her new boyfriend Eben when the protestors decide to threaten more than just the shop - and Molly finds herself in the center of the bullseye. In The Trials of Molly Sheldon, Julian F. Thompson invites his readers to consider the importance of our freedoms of speech, no matter how absurd the setting.
