Healing Water is a very sad but transformative story. It is an excellent story, though I expect it will be mostly read by adults. Because of the depressing subject, I do not know how many teens will pick it up. It may appeal to teens sensitive to others’ feelings or teens who have known desperation of some sort themselves. I was such a teen, but this book is so heart-wrenching. That said, there is much we could learn from it. Maybe know already, but could use a reminder.

You’re welcome, Joyce. As I said before, the book was on my shelf. It is a compelling story.
Glad to see you’re still reading my site. Don’t get a lot of feedback.
