talk at all...living in this house and all its Shaker ways. You’d get
better than a D in English if you were a fearing Baptist.” At these
words, Robert’s heart almost stops beating. He has heard about the
Baptists, who “put you in water to see how holy you were. . .If you
didn’t come up, you got dead and your mortal soul went to Hell. But if
you did come up, it was even worse. You had to be a Baptist.” A Day No Pigs Would Die

This is even shorter than the famed "Randal Notes" synopses - only what is needed to pass an EHS book quiz. Admit it - it wasn't really your slice until you realized you could read all 98 pages the night before a book quiz. Like "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" and "Terry Bradshaw, Man of Steel."
Was actually the first book test in hs I took and i got, oddly enough...a 98.
