Title:  The Bar Code Tattoo
AuthorSuzanne Weyn

Reviewed by: Alex T. '13

Kayla is having a hard life.  She cannot go to art school because she
is not advanced with the computer.  Now things are even harder because of the Bar Code Tattoo.  People are getting a tattoo that marks them like a cereal box!  It is your ID, credit card, and all of your insurance.  Kayla thinks it is wrong, and she is going to stop it.
Unfortunately, she is required to get the tattoo when she turns seventeen. (Her birthday is coming up)  Her best friend, Amber, had to move because of her parent's Bar Code.  Kayla finds new friends, faith in herself, and love in her journey to overcome this systematic way of putting people in a box.  She and her friends won't stop fighting, even if they die trying.
