“I wish I’d had a book like this when I was a young person growing up. These well-crafted short stories, all open-ended, draw young readers into challenging situations with the invitation to write their own endings. One value for young readers is the fact that all of these stories are based on situations that happen to youngsters everywhere.” Michael L. Sherer

“Sandra Humphrey highlights for kids the kinds of decisions they are called on to make in everyday life. It is not always easy to live what we believe, but her book provides an easy and fun way to give our young people practice in choosing to ‘do the right thing’ in the face of peer pressure and self-interest.” Sr. Maria Grace Dateno, FSP
