 Trying to improve yourslef in a possitve way is hard work but cole seemed to get through it all , In this book Mikalesen shows how cole delt with everything . 

I really would recomend teenagers this book, not only is their a moral to it but it just so intresting how someone overcomes all there problems. The moral of the book is to not do something you will regret doing later. I love the fact that after you finish a  chapter you just want to continue reading , what a amazing book.
