Stand Tall

Most Recently Read Book:

Stand Tall

By Joan Bauer

This book was a short read about a boy named Tree whose parents get divorced.  He struggles with his parents divorce, but also has to deal with his grandfather, who has a prosthetic leg, a flood that destroys his dad's house and most of their town, and his lack of skills as a basketball player despite being really tall.  It was a nice story about getting through tough times.  Definitely an easy read but I think there are a lot of elements a young adult might be able to relate to.
