When Dad Killed Mom | Julius Lester

so-so

This was BI‘s Fan Book Pick. At first I thought it was a memoir, but it‘s a fiction based on the kids perspectives after their father kills their mother. It‘s basically about dealing with grief. It‘s also a YA book and you can tell because it‘s not as complicated as this topic might be. It does bring up great topics for that age group to contemplate.
