UNIQUE / ROLLERCOASTERS - Thryft

Uncovering a horrific family secret through self-discovery.

Recommendation: This book is an engaging and thought-provoking read for students in their early teens, as it deals with themes of personal identity, family relationships, and the ethical dilemmas surrounding genetic engineering and cloning. The first-person narrative style ensures that the reader is drawn in and remains captivated throughout the story's twists and turns. The book also offers an opportunity for cross-curricular work in science and citizenship classes.
