The Other Mother by Matthew Dicks
4.0
Not an easy book to read, but certainly worthwhile.
Story takes place over two days in the life of Michael, a 14 year old middle school student with ADD, who believes that his mother is not his mother anymore- that she has been replaced by The Other Mother.
But Michael is also carrying a secret.
Full of tough passages and beautiful moments where you are cheering on Michael, this book will make you hate the mean teachers you had as a child and wish for times when we can tell each other our secrets.
