On My Honor

Newbery Honor Book

“A gripping, compassionate portrayal of a boy’s struggle with conscience” (Kirkus) by bestselling author Marion Dane Bauer.

While on a bike trip, Joel’s best friend Tony drowns while they are swimming in the forbidden, treacherous Vermilion River. Joel is terrified at having to tell of his disobedience and overwhelmed by his feelings of guilt, even though the daring act was Tony’s idea, and Joel didn’t know that Tony couldn’t swim. But Joel’s loving and protective father will help him deal with the tragic aftermath—and understand that we all must live with the choices we make.

“A powerful, soul-stirring novel told simply and well.”—Booklist (starred review)
