Great Book Showing School Gun Violence

I picked this book for a school persuasive speech on school shootings and gun violence. From the front flap, this book says it all. On the flap, it says a few of the school gun shootings in American history. In the first section, it shows a good overview of what started it all, the first accounts, and such. I was able to use this book for my project, because it gave TONS of information.

An excellent guide to understanding the problems with guns.

This is the only book for kids that explains why kids use guns and why they act out violently in school. It offers real solutions that every kid can relate to and can use to solve problems in their own schools. It's also a great book for parents to buy and read with their kids as a way to open up communication. An important book to read today.
