This book was touching. I loved every bit of it. It is about a 12 year old boy named Timothy who is under house arrest. From his point of view, we learn that what we are reading is his journal, given to him by the judge to write in. As we read Timothy's journal, we learn the hardships his family is going through, such as his brother, Levi, having a messed up trachea (a large membranous tube reinforced by rings of cartilage, extending from the larynx to the bronchial tubes and conveying air to and from the lungs; the windpipe). Through awful nurses, divorce problems, and controlling himself, we join Timothy on the wild ride of trying to help Levi while under house arrest. This book had parts where I started to tear up, and yet there were still parts that made me smile. I highly recommend House Arrest.

This book was... interesting. I do like it, but it was not my favorite because I could not relate to it personally, and I like that type of story better. It is so sad, though, I feel bad and am praying for families that this happens to!! I think that everyone could try reading this, and you either would really like it, or even if you didn't really get into it you might learn something very important!!

This book is about a boy named Timothy who is under house arrest. Timothy goes through a lot of ups and downs in his life, much like an average human. The story is told in first person view of Timothy, and is told in a more humorous way. The author does an awesome job at grabbing the readers attention, and is a great and interesting story for kids, and maybe even people of an older age to read. The story is easy for people in the reading level to read, and is a read book to read!

This book is incredible and handles a difficult and sad topic really well. I also love how this book doesn't sugarcoat things so children can understand the hardship of life, and that some things just can't be explained. I totally love this book and I would read this more than once.
