Dear Readers,

The other day I was rereading a book I first read in high school and it magically transported me back to that moment, and I remembered how powerful and challenging books and literature can be.

My hope for you is that one day when you’re in high school or college or an adult, you’ll reread Tiger Rising and remember yourself how powerful and challenging books can be. They not only make life a little sweeter,  but I also believe that make us live life better.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
