Question: Can anyone give me a really good book for kids that made you cry!?
I really feel like a good book that will make me cry!. I don't know why but I just do!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Ways To Live Forever by Sally Nicholls!.

It's guaranteed to make you cry, and it's also a very well-written and uplifting book!.

Extract from the book, on Amazon:

"1!. My name is Sam!.

2!. I am eleven years old!.

3!. I collect stories and fantastic facts!.

4!. I have leukemia!.

5!. By the time you read this, I will probably be dead!.


Living through the final stages of leukemia, Sam collects stories, questions, lists, and pictures that create a profoundly moving portrait of how a boy lives when he knows his time is almost up!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

"Surviving Sam" by Karen Rivers made me cry!. It's a book about a girl whose twin brother was killed in an avalanche and it's all about her dealing with his death and her depression and suicide attempts!.

Another book is "A Child Called It" by Dave Pelzer!. It's about a little boy who is HORRIBLY abused by his mother!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

My book of the year has to be The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne!. This book will make you weep!. It is a powerful reminder of our potential for cruelty and the innocence of childhood friendship!. Boyne writes with a remarkable insight into the mind of a child, the content is imaginative and compelling, and as a result, I will never forget this bookWww@QuestionHome@Com

Read Flowers in the Attic by Virginia Andrews!.
If your interested there is a saga!.
Its about how this family falls apart after the father dies in a tragic accident!.
The mother had no one to lean on and support her, and moved in with her parents!. She locked her kids in the attic, where they stay there for years and years, and run out of air!.
Its so sad!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Bridies fire is a really good book that made me cry, however im not sure if it is suitable for really young children
maybe 8+
it is about the potato famine in Ireland!.
