About the Author

James Clayton, author and writer from Minneapolis, Minnesota has written five books and four movies. Inspired by the things that happened in his life he uses his writing as an outlook to express himself and gives you the reader a close look on what he feels and how he is thinking. Normally when writing movie scripts James tends to be on the comedy, and romance side. But with this project he has mixed it up and showcasing a more serious tone, touching on family, depression, and that empty feeling one tends to get. The Sweet Science is very educational and touches on a lot of different subjects that the readers should be able to relate to.

Editorial Reviews

This is an incredible book that touches on many different subjects. I really believe that young adults kids in middle school and high school can really relate to this book. Jose is a very special person and as you are reading the book you can feel what he is going through. Very excellent read.

As a teacher and a person who works with kids on a daily basis this book is really inspirational. It explains the family dimensions and how adult relationships way heavy on children. As you read the book it all ties together leaving you scratching your head, in a good way. Thank you James for this great book that I will share with my students.
