The powerful novel, Tears of a Tiger by Sharon Draper. In this novel, Andy made a tragic mistake that haunted him for the rest of his life. He chose to drink and drive, and ultimately lost his best friend from his actions. People every day make that same mistake. Some are lucky and do not lose their life or the life of others. Other people are not so fortunate. Andy was dealt a big blow, and could not come to terms with his actions. He began counseling, but every day he felt the pain grow deeper and deeper. He tried his best to get attention, but in the end nobody listened to him. The end of the book was totally unexpected and a must read for anyone interested in finding out what consequences one must deal with when one loses a friend due to drinking and driving. This book kept me on my edge, and I would recommend anyone to read it in the middle school level!
