Jason dreams of becoming a violinist, a dream his beloved principal, Mr. Carr, is helping him to realize. When Mr. Carr starts missing school the rumors begin, and finally the truth comes out: Mr. Carr has AIDS and is spending his final days with relatives. When schoolmates begin echoing the intolerance they hear at home, Jason defends Mr. Carr, little imagining the devastating personal consequences. Recommended for ages 9-12.
