"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to
make it come true."
--Richard Bach
Many teenagers feel that high school is one of the most
difficult and confusing times of their life. Life rides a roller
coaster as it hits its fantastic highs and then drops back down to
its unwanted lows. This is natural; it happens to everyone.
Unfortunately, many teenagers feel alone in the world. They wonder
why they were punished and everyone else's life seems to be going
so well.
The collection of poems in "You're not Alone" reflects the pain,
confusion, love, hate, heartbreak, anxiety, and loneliness that all
teenagers go through at one point and time. It reminds them that
they are not rowing the boat by themselves but rather, that they
have an entire crew rowing with them. They are all attempting to
reach a like goal: To make it through their teenage years.
Their wish will come true.

worried when she learns that the Nutcracker School of Ballet might
lose its lease! Life just wouldn't be the same without the ballet

class. The animal shelters can't take the cat for weeks, so Jessica
hopes the cat can live at the Nutcracker School in the meantime.

the landlord needs to bring down the curtain on the
ballerinas-permanently.
