In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe odds are against him. He's been given the humiliating assignment of mentoring the female tribute from District 12, the lowest of the low. Their fates are now completely intertwined -- every choice Coriolanus makes could lead to favor or failure, triumph or ruin. Inside the arena, it will be a fight to the death. Outside the arena, Coriolanus starts to feel for his doomed tribute... and must weigh his need to follow the rules against his desire to survive no matter what it takes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Suzanne Collins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scholastic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Hunger Games\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.08h x 5.33w x 1.18d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781339016573\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade Plus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e508008 \/ Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuzanne Collins is the inter-nationally bestselling author of the Hunger Games series, which also includes the novels \u003ci\u003eThe Hunger Games\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCatching Fire\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMockingjay\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes\u003c\/i\u003e.
