Book Review

The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen

Jessica is a 16 year old track star.  She is one of the best runners on her high school team and lives to run.  That changes with a tragic accident.  The bus she was on has an accident on the way to a track meet, Jessica loses part of her leg.  At least she is alive, one student is killed.  Jessica doesn't feel alive, she sometimes wishes that she was dead.  Can she survive?

This is a very moving book about courage, determination, and survival.
