After by Chalifour

After, the story of a 15 year old, whose father has committed suicide, is told in a very real way. Francis asks the same questions as many do following a death. Should I have done something different to help? Could I have done something different to help? Why didn't I?

I work in an inner city school and wonder how this book may affect those who have experienced this terrible tragedy.
