As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie by Jordan Sonnenblick
Excellent story and should be in all libraries. I know I'm going to order it. The author based it on a student who's brother was diagnosed with Leukemia. Family finances drain, parents not telling Steven what's going on. Steven trying to be the perfect son, Steven almost ignored. Steven feeling so many things. Excellent story. Get this book!
