Wow! How can a book be so uplifting and so sad at the same time? This story allows the reader to think and feel on many levels. There are layers of pure and simple honesty, deception, fear, anger (so much anger)and friendship that all make you question human nature.  What makes us belong or not belong? What makes us feel the need (or the right) to treat some people the way we do? A must read for all of the young ones in your life.
