House Arrest

Juvenile delinquent transforms through forced introspection.

"House Arrest" by K.A. Holt offers a compelling glimpse into the consequences of a moment's poor decision and the redemptive power of reflection. Timothy's emotional journey, captured through his journal entries, may resonate with you if you've ever felt the weight of a mistake. It's a tale that combines the rawness of a young mind with the complexities of growing up and taking responsibility.

Description

Timmy is on probation. It's a strange word—something that happens to other kids, to delinquents, not to kids like him. And yet, he is under house arrest for the next year. He must check in weekly with a probation officer and a therapist, and keep a journal for an entire year. And mostly, he has to stay out of trouble. But when he must take drastic measures to help his struggling family, staying out of trouble proves more difficult than Timmy ever thought it would be. By turns touching and funny, and always original, House Arrest is a middle-grade novel in verse about one boy's path to redemption as he navigates life with a sick brother, a grieving mother, and one tough probation officer.
