- Description
Grade 8 isn’t easy, especially for Owen as he navigates bullies, crushes, reading difficulties, and the mystery of where his bike disappeared. Punctuated by artwork by the author, Rich Théroux’s Silent Reader is a coming-of-age story with a dash of mystery and centres on the feelings and experiences of Owen from a first-person perspective, with occasional chapters from other kids’ perspectives. The chapters are short with easy-to-read language, so this work could be used for independent study or as a class read-aloud. Given the themes of belonging, community, and identity, this work could be used not only in literary studies but also to open class discussions on interpersonal communication or empathy.
