A Moving Coming-of-Age Title
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
My best friend Nelson gave me this book in the 6th grade or so. Then in the 7th grade I moved away. Rarely spoke to Nelson again.Yet, this book he gave me, I never really read so I picked it up, read it, and found myself to be in the exact SAME situation!A nice guy moves to a new town and he always thinks about the past, such as his old house and his old friends and his best friend.Eventually, through touching storytelling, he learns to concentrate on the present. This help made me see the light as well! This book is highly underrated and hard to find, but don't pass up!
