In this novel I read about two young children named gearld and angel. One day when gearlds mother left him at home alone he started to play with the lighter to find the ''fire dancer''. Soon the apartment that gearld was living in started to burn down. The teen next door came and see what was the smell that was coming out of the apartment.Also in this book i read about how the little girl angel would get abused by her stepfather and he would try to play games that she didnt like such as the''touchy feely'' game.Gearld's mother would always leave them home alone she always say that she will come back but she never does gearld and his little sister angel always stayed up waiting for her but she never returns back.I would recommend this book to other nineth graders, because its a good book and it can teach you alot about children your age and what could happen to you if you were in the situation that they were in.I think that most teens would learn alot by reading this and know what's ahead of them in life.
