One of few stories I know of where the focus is on the teen dad. But Sam's decision to put Max up for adoption didn't come realistically to me. This was probably the only book I have ever read like this. At the start it is very funny especially of how Sam, of all teenage boys gets stuck in this situation. It is hilarious of how he handles it and how all the other teenagers have babies but all of them are girls. But at the end I think it gets quite sad and I still personally think he should have kept Max. Honest and revealing look at what it might be like for a teenage boy to try and raise his infant son. Bechard does a great job of showing the conflicting parts of Sam’s character—he loves Max and wants to take good care of him, but he’s also a teenager and wants to have his own life (complete with friends and girls and free time and the possibility of college and a career). I was surprised at first when Sam decides to give Max up for adoption, but in the end Sam feels that it’s the right choice, and so do we. He doesn’t have the same resources and help that Claire does (her mother and sister), and the contrast with the decisions the other characters make emphasizes the point that there is no one right answer for everybody. I like that we get a glimpse of Sam’s future at the end, and get to know that Sam and Max eventually meet again. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
