Opis

STANDING ALONE - This collection of mini stories invite you to the day-to-day activities in the lives of three teens, which are chronicled in journal entries. In four parts, they discuss disturbing issues such as a gay teen's fear of bullying, brutal beatings, sexual assault, and apathy of teachers and others. Follow a young female and her mom forced into homelessness by an abusive father to endure life on the streets, sexual assault by a predator in a homeless shelter, and victimized by someone who rescues them from being homeless. Read the journal entries of a physically abused youth by an addicted mother and his determination to keep eight other siblings safe. Final entries documenting an unsolved mystery, death of a teen, and fear of reporting a pedophile's advances, will shock you and bring you to tears. Read their journals and see them cope against the odds in Mattie Alexander's Standing Alone.
