Untouchable


Untouchable

Scott O'Conner (2012)

Not a children's book (wait until you're older, you wouldn't understand most of it, anyway) but a book I am recommending to any and all that will listen. It's dark, but with art and light and hope.  It's sad, but with love, unbreakable and true.  It's quiet, with emotions and memories and a pull that doesn't let go. It made me wish I could start the last school year over just so I could make sure there were no students like The Kid, hurt and ignored and misunderstood.

Our student book reviewers would love to hear from you! Did you read this book too? Like it, love it, or left it? Are there similar books you think they might enjoy? What is your favorite book of all time?
Thank you.
