There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroom

I enjoyed the story because the main character, Bradley, is an extreme troublemaker and lies but he becomes a better person in the end. The new counselor helps Bradley understand how to communicate with others and make good choices. The new counselor has to leave the school and he is left to make good choices without her advice. I think students could learn a lot about themselves reading this story.

Students will like this story because it realistic and kids can relate to the character even if the boy makes extreme choices. The title will grab students' attention and make them want to know why a boy is in the girl's bathroom. This is a taboo subject and kids want to know!
