xiv, 123 pages ; 24 cm, An entertaining and poignant collection of true stories from young people who have reached out to Harriet Turk after her speaking engagements at school assemblies, youth conferences, or weekend leadership retreats. A few of them she met only through a note that was pressed in her hand while she was talking with someone else. Others contacted her through a personal call, email, Facebook message, or letter. And some of them were those tentative students who were waiting in the wings, longing to share their stories with someone who has been there - and needing to believe in the promise of a better future. It's not just about dreams; it's about life.
