Three poignant, insightful, and emotional stories that lift your spirits and give hope to the trouble teens in our lives.
Grit
Eighth grader Adelya Jefferson doesn't eat strawberries...or anything red. With her love for poetry and best friend Riley, she tip-toes through the social minefield of middle school while grappling with anxiety and an eating disorder.
Enter Duke Hawkins, a former bully with a dark past and an invitation to the middle school dance.
Grit is a poignant tale of teen self-discovery and the transformative power of friendship. Ady's journey reminds us that courage and compassion can emerge from the most unexpected places, turning life's challenges into steppingstones for growth.
Rizzle
When Shayne was five, Rizzle, a wrinkled old man with a knack for whittling and a penchant for Pepsi-soaked toothpicks, moved in next door. Over the next decade, Shayne spent countless hours on Rizzle's porch, learning to whittle, recognize the toothpick flavors, and become self-reliant.
Rizzle is a story of intergenerational relationships and a teen discovering the power of self-confidence and resilience.
Rotten
With seven kids in the family, I'm glad I'm big and strong so I can fight my way to the table...and suffer less from the beatings. Sometimes, though, a little magic happens and the unexpected comes to live with you.
Rotten is a heartbreaking story of violence and family turmoil from a teen perspective.
