After a lifetime of being bullied, Daelyn is broken beyond repair.
She has tried to kill herself before, and is determined to get it
right this time. Though her parents think they can protect her, she
finds a Web site for "completers" that seems made just for her. She
blogs on its forums, purging her harrowing history. At her private
Catholic school, the only person who interacts with her is a boy
named Santana. No matter how poorly she treats him, he just won't
leave her alone. And it's too late for Daelyn to be letting people
into her life . . . isn't it?
In this harrowing, compelling novel, Julie Anne Peters shines a
light on what might make a teenager want to kill herself, as well
as how she might start to bring herself back from the edge. A
discussion guide and resource list prepared by "bullycide" expert
C. J. Bott are included in the back matter.

When Lizzie's parents are granted their freedom from slavery, Mama
says its time for Lizzie and her brother Paul to go to a real
school--a new one, built just for them. Lizzie can't wait. The
scraps of learning she has picked up here and there have just made
her hungry for more.
The walk to school is long. Some days it's rainy, or windy, or
freezing cold. Sometimes there are dangers lurking along the way,
like angry white folks with rocks, or mysterious men on horseback.
The schoolhouse is still unpainted, and its very plain, but Lizzie
has never seen a prettier sight. Except for maybe the teacher, Mizz
Howard, who has brown skin, just like her.
They've finally made it to Freedom's School. But will it be strong
enough to stand forever?
Praise for Light in the Darkness
"In this tale, Cline-Ransome] makes the point that learning was not
just a dream of a few famous and accomplished men and women, but
one that belonged to ordinary folk willing to risk their lives.
Ransome's full-page watercolor paintings-in beautiful shades of
blue for the night and yellow for the day-are a window, albeit
somewhat gentle, into a slave's life for younger readers. A
compelling story about those willing to risk " a] lash for each
letter." -Kirkus Reviews
"Told from the perspective of Rosa, a girl who makes the dangerous
nighttime journey to the lessons with her mother, the story
effectively conveys the urgent dedication of the characters to
their surreptitious schooling and their belief in the power of
literacy...Solid text and soft, skillful illustrations combine for
a poignant tribute to the power of education and the human
spirit."-School Library Journal
