Clayton Byrd Goes Underground by Rita Williams-Garcia
4.0

A slim book about grief and family. I especially enjoyed seeing how Clayton and his mother related to Cool Papa. You can try to fix your mistakes, but sometimes if you don't find exactly the right way, it doesn't work out they way you thought. I mean, I hope Cool Papa understood how he screwed up with his daughter and was trying to make things better with Clayton. I also liked that Clayton's dad was in the picture, as much as Clayton's mother allowed, and respected her wishes while also gently saying what he wanted.
