Gritty and realistic story of how a sexually abused girl tries to hide herself from her abuser and the world. Like in real life, it seldom works. However, Alice isn't the only 'survivor' in her school. Hunter is seen by almost everyone as 'suicide boy', even though almost nobody knows his real story. When he intervenes between Alice and her abuser, she's shocked, then wary, but ultimately curious. Why would this guy who seems like a surly loner, come to her defense?

All children love to look up to older people, and this book is a perfect example. Luke's older cousin shows him the ropes when it comes to dealing with asthma. This book can show how to befriend someone and lend a helping hand. Helping is a big thing when dealing with children so I would definitely use this book in my own classroom.
