5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent YA read
Easy read, great lessons to be learned. Highly recommend for middle schoolers.
5.0 out of 5 stars Helps to Teach the principle of "Making Your Word Yes Mean Yes"
This was a book which taught a powerful lesson of what our honor means. Although my son is 14 years old, he and I enjoy being read to and it was my turn to read to him. He asked I read this every night until we finished it. It was a quick read and opened a meaningful discussion of not only the power of words but the consequences of keeping or not keeping our word. Since reading this book, every now and then when he promises me something, he'll look over at me with a sly smile and say "On My Honor" and I know it means something. This was a very good book, somewhat predictable but yet gripping.
5.0 out of 5 stars On My Honor
This book was a suggested reading for my 11 yr old Granddaughter who will be starting Middle School this fall. So I read it first and I thought it was excellent. It is about taking a stand for what is right, not giving in to pressure from your peers to do something you know is wrong. It was a little sad because of the choice one boy made. Jennifer read it and she like it and she doesn't like to read. If you have a child 9 and above, I recommend this book as one to read and discuss.
4.0 out of 5 stars Powerful
This novel is a powerful read. As soon as I finished it, I took it to my 5th grade neighbor. Great read especially for boys who struggle finding the right book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grandson Recommended
A heart wrenching story of a childhood tragedy. A tragedy that impacts, forever, the lives of two families. Joel will never forgive himself over the loss of his friend. I watched a childhood friend get hit and killed by a car 70 years ago. That image is still vivid in my memory.This may be a children’s book but there is a deep message concerning unintentional consequences.I think it gave my grandson a deeper understandingly of what it means to give your word, On Your Honor!
5.0 out of 5 stars Friendship
I read this book back in elementary and always remembered it fondly. It's bittersweet. I love reading and so does my daughter, so I bought this book for her. She finished it in 2 days. Loved it

子供向けと侮るなかれ
少年二人のある夏の物語を描いた子供向け作品ですが、大人が読んでも十分なすばらしい作品です。ページをめくると次々に頭の中にシーンが浮かんでくるような感覚を覚えました。テーマも考えされられるものです。英語は簡単で、ページ数も少ないので初めて洋書にチャレンジされる方にもお勧めです。
