A story is only as good as its heel. Toss in that the heel is also a bully and it can take on primal feelings of disdain, guilt and shame. Not only are they not a good person, they’re actively picking on other people. It’s on. The Tornado is by author Jake Burt. Its tagline is “Only a force of nature can stop this bully”. This is middle school reading that’s more fun to read than that tagline infers. Ultimately, it’s about friendship, making mistakes and owning up to them.
The Tornado, it’s not what you think it is.
