I just finished a fantastic book! This fantastic book is called TouchBlue by: Cynthia Lord. This book is from the perspective of a 13 year old girl named Tess. She lives on an island, and a lot of people live with her. The island people theaten that they will close a school because there are not a lot of children on the island. Well you may think this is not a big deal, but guess what your wrong! This school only has one teacher (Tess's mom) so the head starters will have to work with the middle schoolers! And if they shut down the school then there will not be any education and not alot of jobs, witch means Tess and the rest of the islanders will have to go to the main land (Manie). They find a solution to adopt kids and Tess's family is also chosen for the adopation. They adopt a thirteen year old,stuborn, trumpet,and piano playernamed Aaron. He lived 5 years with his mom untill she chose drinking better than him (at least that is what he thinks).Then 6 years with his grandma,andthis is his second foster home. Eben is always lookin for troble will he get to Aaron?
