Positive is a must-read for teens, their parents, educators, and administrators--a brave, visceral work that will save lives and resonate deeply. Paige Rawl has been HIV positive since birth, but growing up, she never felt like her illness defined her. On an unremarkable day in middle school, she disclosed to a friend her HIV-positive status- -and within hours the bullying began. From that moment forward, every day was like walking through a minefield. Paige was never sure when or from where the next text, taunt, or hateful message would come. Then one night, desperate for escape, fifteen-year-old Paige found herself in her bathroom staring at a bottle of sleeping pills. That could have been the end of her story. Instead, it was only the beginning. Paige's memoir calls for readers to choose action over complacency, compassion over cruelty-- and above all, to be Positive. Includes twenty-five photos from Paige's personal collection throughout. 520 A teen survivor of bullying describes how her HIV positive status was discovered at school and made her the target of abuse by peers and school officials, actions that prompted a suicide attempt and subsequent dedication to advocacy. 521 8 HL730L|bLexile 526 0 Accelerated Reader AR|bMG+|c5.1|d10|z168156 526 0 Accelerated Reader|bMG+|c5.1|d10|z168156 538 Requires Boundless App. 588 Description based on print version record. 600 10 Rawl, Paige|xHealth|vJuvenile literature. 600 11 Rawl, Paige|xHealth. 600 17 Rawl, Paige.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01916444 650 0 HIV-positive children|vBiography|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 AIDS (Disease) in adolescence|xPatients|vBiography |vJuvenile literature. 650 0 AIDS (Disease) in adolescence|xSocial aspects|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Bullying|xPsychological aspects|vJuvenile literature. 650 1 HIV-positive persons. 650 1 AIDS (Disease)|xPatients. 650 1 AIDS (Disease)|xSocial aspects. 650 1 Bullying|xPsychological aspects. 650 7 AIDS (Disease) in adolescence|xSocial aspects.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00793989 650 7 Bullying|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00841559 650 7 Health.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00952743 650 7 HIV-positive children.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01749611 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 Juvenile works.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411637 700 1 Benjamin, Ali,|eauthor. 776 08 |iElectronic reproduction of (manifestation):|aRawl, Paige.|tPositive|dNew York, NY : Harper, an imprint of HarperCollinsPublishers, [2014]|z9780062342515|w(DLC) 2014005857|w(OCoLC)866620641 856 40 |uhttps://naper.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0014206650|zFound on Boundless
