Based on the texts provided, which statement is accurate?

Fire from the Rock is a great book that I would recommend to others. It is set in 1957 Little Rock, Arkansas, a city boiling over racial segregation. Black and white youths are hot-blooded and hot-tempered, and many adults fan these flames of anger and violence. The protagonist is fifteen-year-old Sylvia Patterson, a fictional character who loves boys, music, and poetry. She has the opportunity to be one of the first nine African American students to integrate the all-white Central High School, but Sylvia is not excited about this and fears she is not brave enough. However, her brother wants to be on the list and will do anything to get on it. Just a few days later, Sylvia's brother gets beaten up by three white boys. This makes Sylvia doubt the idea even more.

A) Governor Faubus was angered by Draper's novel because of its negative portrayal of him.
B) The actions of the governor in Draper's story are based on the historical record of the actions of Governor Faubus.
C) Draper set her novel in 1957 in Arkansas, but the governor in her story does not share the same opinions or take the same actions as the historical Governor Faubus.
D) Draper gives the governor in her story a different name and physical description, but that character shares the same opinions or takes the same actions as the historical Governor Faubus.
