Will's Choice by Gail Griffith

I liked the book, Will's Choice, because it was very interesting to hear a personal story of a person's struggle with depression. It goes very in depth of the disease that effects so many people. Other students will like this book if they like learning information in a way that is shocking. Many families deal with teens who are depressed on a daily basis but ignore the signs because it "can't happen to them." The book starts off with a shocking beginning about a mother finding her soon foaming from the mouth in his bed and she doesnt know what is wrong. She feels he is just ill and needs to go to the doctor but when he doesn't respond, the setting changes. Emergency 911 was called and they kept asking if Will does drugs; she didn't think so. So what made Will sick?
