Timothy is on probation. It's a strange word-something that happens to other kids, to delinquents, not to kids like him. And yet, he is under house arrest for the next year. He must check in weekly with a probation officer and a therapist, and keep a journal for an entire year. And mostly, he has to stay out of trouble. But when he must take drastic measures to help his struggling family, staying out of trouble proves more difficult than Timothy ever thought it would be. By turns touching and funny, and always original, House Arrest is a middlegrade novel in verse about one boy's path to redemption as he navigates life with a sick brother, a grieving mother, and one tough probation officer.

Wat een prachtig boek, fantastisch. Maar doe jezelf een plezier en zoek de audioversie van de schrijfster zelf op YouTube op. Deze monotone stem is echt het boek onwaardig.Wat is dit een verschrikkelijke voorlezer: zo enorm saai en dat je denkt dat het zo bedoeld is, is dus echt niet als je kijkt hoe de schrijfster het zelf voorleest. De emotie, het gevoel ontbreekt gewoon bij deze Alex.
