artistic and kind. In trying to help an
elusive young boy who has been terrorized by neighborhood bullies, Will's violent nature erupts.
Told in prosaic-verse Breath to Breath is a story of
discovery and healing. A note from the publisher and the book cover tell us
this novel is based on a true story. Breath to Breath a very fast moving story
with disturbing scenes. The book may be best place in the counselors’ office
and handed to specific individuals rather than made available to general school
library access.
