He has relocated to his grandmother's house in the affluent part of town and now behaves as if he is too good for his old friends. He is also getting into trouble, such as playing video games all night and nearly getting caught by the police. Can Dean figure out what is going on with his best friend? Or is it too late for their friendship? The Two Sides series has a unique structure, with each book containing two parallel narratives that offer different perspectives on the same situation and highlight the risks of making snap judgments about situations we know little about. These thought-provoking stories follow a linear timeline and read like diary entries. The voice changes with each chapter, allowing the reader to stay up to date on events while gaining a deeper understanding of the characters. These captivating narratives address serious issues that many young people face today, such as family breakdown, identity, domestic abuse, racism, and being a young carer. With approximately 4,000 words and a reading age of 8-9, these books are perfect for struggling readers aged 13 and up. They would also make great quick reads for more advanced readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 74g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 199 x 137 x 4 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781788373265                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Donna David","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44093992272122,"sku":"9781788373265","price":8.08,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/2559667057bee69bdbe2a283015c8784.jpg?v=1631848078","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/bruised","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
