Josh's Story: From the Side of the One Who Bullies

There are two sides to this story...

Josh Alberts, an all-star baseball player, got himself into big trouble and was sent to Creekside Juvenile Detention Center. After serving almost a year there, he finally started to feel some remorse for what happened, but then he received some bad news. This news is what made him mad and decide to take out his anger on his target, a teammate's brother, Shawn Townson.

Normally, we hear about what happens from the perspective of the target of a bully. Not this time. In "Josh's Story," we are going to look at what happened from the one who bullies' point of view.

This story is based on characters and storyline from The Way Series, a coming-of-age young adult novel series about the challenges teens face. It is a stand-alone story, but if you are reading the series, it fits well between book two, Shawn's Way, and book three, The Street's Way.
