This is a cute little story, or, actually, two stories in one. It starts out with a teacher, Todd, helping to protect a new student for being bullied, but the actual story is about Todd’s background. It was interesting to see where he’d come from (as he once feared his family) and how strong and self-confident he has become. While the new student still has this journey ahead of him, Todd and his partner of over twenty years, Shane, have already completed it.

If you like stories with main characters who stand up and fight for themselves, and if you like seeing how things can become better, you will probably like this story. It left me with a big smile on my face.
