Biography & True Stories
Description
A book for every teacher, every parent, every teenager Written from the perspective of the classroom avenger, this book explores distorted thinking and reveals the ‘socially acceptable’ evils that provoke such a lethal response. The book is the story of one man, a step by step chronicle of the development of the school shooter’s thinking. It is also the story of everyone who has ever watched, with horror, the terrible aftermath of a school shooting and asked themselves, why? Extensively illustrated with images that reflect the horror of increasing mental isolation, the book offers, not only understanding, but also provides hope for those slipping through society’s cracks.
