This book is awesome! I would recommend it to all mature, upper elementary kids and to all high school kids despite some bad language and suggestions of sexual activity. The story is gripping; offers insights into the psyches of abusers and abused; and deals the injustices of racial prejudice.
Senior The Tao Jones puts together a swim team of misfits totally dedicated to the sport, and in the end, to each other.
