Pay Attention, Carter Jones by Gary D. Schmidt
4.0
Love me some Gary D. Schmidt!!
Another novel about boys finding a way to get in touch with their feelings and dealing with emotional difficulties - we really need these for the next generation, seriously. This is a story about everything that goes wrong in a family, and how we can each carry pieces into a brighter day. Powerful, wonderful, and not too messy.
I wish there was slightly less graphic descriptions of cricket, but what is a Schmidt novel without too much of a sport, eh?
