| Publisher Description: God says, "No weapon formed against me shall prosper." This truth, if we understand it, keeps and comforts us in difficult times. However, when we are young, hard times can get really bad and that is where our courage can and often must kick in. The heroine of this story is not named because she could be and is any of us, all of us. She is fighting for her life in a time when no one seems to see or care about the pain she is in. This book is a testimony to that pain and my hope that it will sensitize others to the true effects, experience, and damage bullying can cause. Let's all make a pact not to attend one more hospital room gathering, church service, or gravesite and say, "I wish I had known or done more." Let's work together and change the lives of those who are needlessly and without provocation hurting because of others. No man is an island and no bully is invincible. Stand strong, and be of good courage: things can, will, and must change. |
