Camden Robertson answers “My 10 year old son has been assigned this...”

Jenny asked this question about Prisoner B-3087:

My 10 year old son has been assigned this book as part of a reading bowl competition. He is mature, very bright and in gifted education. I don't doubt his ability to read this, but I'm concerned about the emotional punch he might get from such violence and human suffering. He tends to be a bit sensitive. How graphic is the imagery? Is it appropriate for this age? Thoughts?

Camden Robertson I am a 12 year old boy who hates to read. But, when i read this book it pulled me into the book world. I totally suggest to read this book. LOVE IT SO…moreI am a 12 year old boy who hates to read. But, when i read this book it pulled me into the book world. I totally suggest to read this book. LOVE IT SO MUCH. Only bad thing is it is kinda graphic. Be ready to face the real world when you read this book. (less)
