Summary

Rebellious Dobie despises her wealthy background and has just lost the chance to be a professional dancer. Then there's Melissa-smart and sensible, always doing her best to compensate for a life on the run with her alcoholic mother. They couldn't be more different yet in between the anger and disappointment there's common ground. Once, they both had dreams- what went wrong? Bone Song is a moving story about the magic of friendship, and the power that love and hate can wield inside every family. Cutting Edge is a gritty quick read series for teens and young adults who find conventional fiction irrelevant to them or too hard to read. The new titles in the series tackle contemporary issues such as gun crime, incest, domestic violence, alcohol abuse and mental illness. Packed with drama and emotion from one page to the next, readers will be truly compelled by these gripping and satisfying stories. Carefully chosen fonts, simple layout and controlled vocabulary help carry readers from beginning to end without any hint of chore-factor creeping in.
