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?
James Carrello
It was an amazing book. It can get graphic at some parts but your son should be fine.
