Here you'll find the readings and reflections of an 8th grade reading teacher. I agree with Taylor Mali - If I'm going to change the world, it'll be one eighth grader at a time.

Review: After
After by Amy Efaw
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Devon is fifteen, her school's star goalkeeper, and in a state of denial. The story tells about her eight days in jail on the charge of attempted murder. Through flashback, readers find out what led Devon to the place she's currently in.
This page-turner deals with the issues of teenage pregnancy and its effects on one teenager. This is one I'm glad I picked up for a student. If you liked Th1rteen R3asons Why and/or If I Stay, you'll like After.
