The rot. That's the name given to the economic 'rough times.' Do you think we're in the midst of 'a rot'? How do many of the Huberman's financial struggles parallel those of today?
As Lisel writes the letter to her mother, many questions arise. How do these questions relate to both the past of her brother and that of her mother?

In 2006, then-editor Steve Smith of The Spokesman-Review had the idea of starting a publication for an often forgotten audience: teenagers. The Vox Box was a continuation of the Vox, an all-student staffed newspaper published by The Spokesman-Review. High school student journalists who staffed the Vox made all content decisions as they learn about the trade of journalism. This blog's mission was to give students an opportunity to publish their voices. The Vox Box and the Vox wrapped up in June 2009, but you can follow former staffers' new blog at http://voxxiez.blogspot.com.
