A Bloody Book

How long does a lost child hold onto hope? "When did you stop caring? Go into any kindergarten classroom and ask those kids how many want to become readers. All hands go up. They keep them up until you give them some eye contact because they want you to know that they are well on their way to becoming readers. And now you're all in this remedial class with your failing grades and bad reputations. So, when did you all stop caring?" No one, dear reader, is prepared for Maxx's answer or his chilling tail of death, struggle, and murder. Come read a book that has long been student approved. When writing a book based on struggling readers, Mr. Bowen went straight to the source. Each chapter became an assignment in an eighth grade classroom of students who once boasted about not having read a book since the second grade. His inspiration became his mentors and his toughest critics. They would not let it go until they felt he had told it right. Come see for yourself.
