This is a summary about "Teacup Full of Roses" this is a good book that I enjoyed . I would recommened this book to other people to read especially teenager because it talks about the problems teenagers deal with today. It talks about the help teenagers get when they are going through tough situations.My favorite characters in the book "Teacup Full of Roses" is Joseph Matthew. The reason why I said this was my favorite character was because he was determined to make Davey become the person their mother be talking about. My least favorite character is the father because when Paul came back home the father didn't really cared for him. He kept reminding Paul about drugs. The lesson teenagers can learn is they should not let drugs come into their life because drugs can take over your life. Then you will not be able to become what you want to be. So if you would like to achieve your dreams do not do drugs.

I thought that the book"Teacup full of Roses",was a great book. I know many people who have gone through situations similar to the ones in the book such as dealing with a person who has problems with drugs and the tragedies that come along with that. I think that the author,Sharon Bell Mathis, did a great job by adding a specific backround to each character. In doing so, she made the book more exciting and kept me reading to the last page!!!!!
