A Separate Peace
$13.99
Boys encounter one of the most honest explorations in literature of what envy can do to a friendship — and what it does to the person who carries it. A Separate Peace teaches boys to recognize and name the dangerous emotions inside themselves before they act on them, and to understand that jealousy destroys the one who holds it far more than its target.
