Annotated Bibliography #4

Tears of a Tiger by Sharon M. Draper

The first book in the Hazelwood High Trilogy, this novel deals with a lot of tragedy. A popular basketball player is killed in an alcohol related car accident. His best friend, who was also the driver on that ill fated night, is having a hard time dealing with the repercussions. He covers his depression up, or tries to, for a long time, until he is finally overcome by it. Told in the form of conversations, letters, poems, and diary entries, this novel explores the feelings of those left behind by tragedy.
