Forged by Fire Audiobook

" This is a great book that could be used in a middle school classroom and a high school classroom. It includes many issues that todays youth may encounter. It includes death, family struggles, figuring out who you are, and more. It is about a boy named Gerald who is thrown into a household that included difficult situations. He is determined to find a way to make it. As an adult I was completely amazed with the plot and how easy it is to relate to Gerald. "

" I think it was funny how Gerald's step dad died because he was an alcoholic and he deserved it. "

" I LOVE THIS BOOK SOOO MUCH!! "

" I like this book alot because is so interesting, and because it kips me wandering what is going to hapen next. i am enjoing this book alot. "

" I read Forged by Fire after having it recommended to me fron Le'Jayah, it was avery quick read and I really liked it. Forged by Fire is about a boy named Gerald who is sent to live with his aunt after being left in a burning apartment by his mother at the age of four. But on his ninth birthday his mom comes for a visit proposing that Gerald live with her and her new family, an abusing husband and very fragile daughter, Angel. On that same day Geralds aunt dies of a heart attack and he is forced to live with his mother. I really enjoyed Forged by Fire because it was kind of a coming of age story and was a book that kept me reading. In fact it is part of a series and so I also read Tears of a Tiger and am going to read Darkness Before Dawn another book in the series. "

" I think that it is a great book so far. "

" Forged by Fire is a really great book. its about a boy named Gerald who gets left alone and plays with matches and accedently sets his house on fire so he gets sent to his aunts and lives there for a long time. "

" I loved the book...it was just as good as Tears of a Tiger. I think that everyone must read it. "

" One of the greatest books I've read. 5 Stars. Thumbs Up, Hate Down. "

" This book was amazing overall always keeps you thinking of whats going to happen next i truly recommend this book "

" Pranking Brian was great. Great book Sharon! "

" I think it was a great book, I'll read that book any day "

" Another good life lesson book. About family, child abuse & friendship. "

" I loved this book! I read this book for a reading book in my English class, and I finished it the day after we started it! Sharon M. Draper is one of my favorite authors! "

" Had to read to continue the series of tears of a tiger "

" i think that sharon M. draper is a good author and she is very enjoyable "

" Wow! "

" Amazing! "

" Great book! "

" Not the best in the Hazelwood High trilogy but it was still pretty good. Kind of sad, though. "

" I really liked reading this book! The main character, man was he strong & independent! Good book to read! "

" This book was ok. The main character suffered through tragedy after tragedy leaving me feeling like 'are we done yet?!' Some of the tragedy seemed over done. Not sure if I would choose another book by this author. "

" Not for me, but great for kids who want a sympathetic hero who goes through every possible trauma and drama. Every chapter contains another catastrophe. 75% of the kids I talk to love this author, so she is clearly hitting a nerve. "

" Really cool and interesting book! People should be more like Gerald. "

" I love this book its so deep and it talks about alot of things that can be reality "

" this book is about a boys aunt who dies and he is put into a new home . He has no one to love but Angel ,and together they face the problems of an substance- abusive mother and a physically abusive step-dad . He watches out for Angel and together they over come their problems with time . "

" This is the follow-up to TEARS OF A TIGER, but it is really a prequel of one of the main character's life prior to the story of TEARS OF A TIGER. Really great book, and again, a great book to turn reluctant African-American kids onto reading. Actually, to turn ANY kid onto reading. :) "

" this book is very sad but it's a great book. "

" This Book is very intresting. It made me look at how people situations are and how it so different. This book is also made for ages 10 too so on. "

" Good but the first book was better in my opinion. "

" Great novel for a reluctant middle school reader! "
