Watch me / Norah McClintock.
At first Kaz intends to help the old lady who's fallen in the park. But then he starts thinking about how he never gets what he wants. The next thing he knows, he's running away with her purse. The purse contains only five dollars and a battered watch. When Kaz learns who the old woman is and where the watch came from, he begins to understand consequences in a new way. Ages 10 +; Reading level 3.0
"A dyslexic teen-ager, badly scarred in a fire and resentful of his parents' divorce, steals a senior's purse. This short novel is written for young readers but would interest many adult learners reading at this level." – October 2008 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
