Kinda Like Brothers

Kinda Like Brothers by Coe Booth, 248 pages


Jarrett is used to his mom bringing in foster kids, but they have always been babies and Jarrett has never had to have much to do with them.  This time is different.  The baby has an older brother, Kevon, who is not only a little older than Jarrett, but is also going to be sleeping in Jarrett’s room.  Jarrett thinks that Kevon is a big pain.  He doesn’t want him butting into his life.  Everyone thinks that they ought to be able to friends, but Jarrett doesn’t trust Kevon and he isn’t going to let that happen.  Jarret knows that Kevon is hiding something and when he figures out what it is, maybe he can figure out how to get him out of his life.  This is a story about two boys learning to accept each other’s differences and get along.  A lot of kids who like realistic fiction will enjoy this book.
