Description
Jolie and her friends Charlotte, Bronwyn and Hayley are at war with three boys in Year 9 at school. It's a love/hate relationship, where they set each other up with dares and the losers have consequences.
When the boys win a bet, the girls cry 'Unfair!' However, their plan for revenge backfires and leads to the principal banning all e-scooters from school premises and insisting students must follow government regulations, which means they can only ride a scooter with an adult. How can they get to school? To their jobs?
Jolie and her friends want to fix things, but what can they achieve on their own? Is the only person who can help the one person Jolie doesn't want to turn to?
The e-Revolution is in the Rhiza Shorts series—a short read designed to engage teenage reluctant readers, including those who struggle with confidence in reading. With a reading age of 10+ and an interest age of 14+, The e-Revolution features relatable situations and fun characters who teens can identify with. It also tackles the issues surrounding e-scooters with realism and compassion while still focusing on responsibility and safety.
