Information about the author
Morton Rhue is the pen name of successful American children's writer Todd Strasser. Born in New York in 1950, Todd has had more than 140 children's and young adult books published. His most well-known book is The Wave, which is a fictionalized account of a fascinating teaching experiment in a California high school in 1967. It was made into a film. Todd continues to live in New York state and has a grown-up family.

Summary of The Wave
The Wave is based on a nightmarish true episode in a Californian high school, when a teacher wanted to demonstrate the dangers of propaganda and group-think. It is one of The Originals from Penguin - iconic, outspoken, first.

Laurie isn't sure what to make of The Wave. It had begun as a simple history experiment to liven up their World War II studies and had become a craze that was taking over.
