Why read it?
1 author picked Jason's Why as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
At last, a book about a kid whose anger is just as big as the anger of many kids I know, and whose transition into parent-requested foster care isn’t easy—but gets easier. Jason and his family are in trouble, and this straightforward novel opens a door that readers don’t often walk through, unless we’re opening that door in real life. This novel reflects real-life situations in a direct and caring story about what happens next.
From Beverley's list on kids living here and now.
