A powerful, soul-stirring novel told simply and well.-Booklist (starred review) This is a devastating but beautifully written story of a boy's all-consuming guilt over the role he plays in the death of his best friend . . . Bauer's honest and gripping novel joins the ranks of such as Katherine Paterson's Bridge to Terabithia in its handling of these issues.-Publishers Weekly Descriptions are vivid, characterization and dialogue natural, and the style taut but unforced. A powerful, moving book.-School Library Journal
