Mr. Bubbles

This verse novel flows quickly and rhythmically. Each chapter faces and resolves a new challenge. Bobby Bubbles leaves high school to embark on building a life of his own. His dad’s bad temper and divorce from his mom have left Bobby’s life rather deflated and lacking in social skills. His faith, his sister Beth and eventually a few friends, including an imaginary one named Chuck, help guide him on his journey to find love and a meaningful life. While transparently solving problems along the way, the reader can experience the relief of resolution and perhaps muster motivation and courage to solve some problems of their own.
