“You took out my brother?” “I didn't mean to take out your brother.” “Everyone says you took out my brother. I've been wanting to do that since I was out of the womb.” “It was like a missile,” said Danny. I limped back into school, ...

Ulasan Pengguna - ms_rowse - LibraryThingLove love love this book. I want to be Mrs. Baker--she is the perfect teacher.
