a collection of inspiring stories for young readers /

"In a collection of personal stories and essays, award-winning and bestselling artists from Matt de la Peą and Veera Hiranandani to Max Brallier and R.L. Stine write about how hope always wins, even in the darkest of times. From a family restaurant to a hot-dog shaped car, from an empty road on a moonlight night to a classroom holiday celebration, this anthology of personal stories from award-winning and bestselling authors, shows that hope can live everywhere, even--or especially--during the darkest of times."--Publisher marketing
