About the Book Swallowing Stones
Swallowing Stones by Joyce McDonald is a compelling young adult novel that explores the far-reaching consequences of a single, tragic mistake. The story centers on Michael MacKenzie, a teenager who, on his 17th birthday, fires a rifle into the air, unaware that the bullet will travel a mile and fatally strike Charlie Ward, a man repairing his roof.
As the news of Charlie’s death spreads, Michael is consumed by guilt and fear, struggling with the decision to come forward or keep his secret. Meanwhile, Jenna Ward, Charlie’s daughter, struggles with her grief and the mystery surrounding her father’s death. The novel delves into themes of guilt, responsibility, and the impact of one’s actions on others, as both Michael and Jenna navigate their intertwined paths towards healing and redemption.
This Page Is Under Construction
It takes a long time to gather all the data for our new book page format with more useful descriptions, themes, and activity ideas. Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
