Jerk

        Being teased is so not fair. Many do it because your different or you have a problem. Jerk by Jonathan Frisen is about a boy named Sam who has tourette syndrome and is being discouraged because of it. Many think Sam Carrier is a freak because he twitches every minute. He is being discouraged by his step father ever since they found out when he was little. Sam thinks that Bill is ashamed of him because of his disability. But his mother loves him regardless. Another one is he has to go to this therapy session everyday after school to talk about his tourette. Sam loves to run but because the Coach said he can't on the track team, he can't. The reason being he can go in to spasm at any moment. Which I think is unfair.
