The Boy Who Came Back From Heaven


In the book that I'm reading, The Boy Who Came Back from Heaven, there are several small causes and effects that are going on through out the book, but there is one main one that is near to impossible to miss. In the book, main character Alex  Malarky's life is changed in an instant when his father and him run through a red light and head straight for a crash that sending one of their lives nearly down the drain. Alex's father lives, remarkably with little scratches and a mere concussion, but what happens after the whole incident is even more unexplained.

The main cause of the book is the horrific accident, and the effect is the coma that Alex goes into, the depression both of his parents find, and the journey little Alex goes through. Although the car crash ruined many things, without it, nothing would of ever happened to the story, and there would of been no point of reading it. This cause and effect is an example of a person versus person, and although the other person was not hurt in the slightest bit, it effected the story greatly.

  1. The beginning and the end were a little rushed and scarce on details, but I really liked how you phrased how the crash effected the family.
