Oscar, a football star, just lost his little sister to cancer. Riley's been dragged away from Philadelphia by her single mom to a new life in West Beacon, a tiny Pennsylvania coal town that's smaller than Riley's old school. Noah's spent his whole life as a homeschooler and just started West Beacon Middle School as a result of his parents' train wreck of a divorce. Through art, football, failure, faith, and trust, the friends help one another to piece things back together again. In true friendship, they also discover that some injuries may never heal, some things can never be unbroken--and that's okay too.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Acampora\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1984816640\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781984816641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dial Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.70w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2022 pg. 74\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2022 pg. 58\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/04\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2022 - Superior,Well Above Average","brand":"Paul Acampora","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44055528997119,"sku":"9781984816641","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e2b1e7b-2e74-4a88-b72a-243373271e2b.jpg?v=1685036303","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-honor-of-broken-things-paul-acampora-9781984816641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
