I loved the teen-aged male perspective on this problem. The main character was eminantly likeable and the material was presented in a way that teens could understand and empathize with. This book is a mitzvah.

i thought this book was very good. Usually when people write about unplanned pregnancy or teenage parents its usually from the womans point of view. To have a book handle the same topis from the male point of view was refreshing and new. This book was not a very hard read but it was lovely.

This book is a MUST read. This is about a young guy who wants to keep his baby while still going thru high school. The ending is a cliff hanger, but the rest is so good it makes up for it. (Also I personally like cliff hangers. You can end the book anyway you want too. haha)
