When the voice inside my head is going crazy about how I might sound weird or the question I'm asking might sound dumb.

Volleyball was my way out. So now, instead of trying to get away from my small town, I’m just trying to escape the pain.

The neighborhood friends are confronted with a tough choice. Include or exclude the new kid who just moved in.

Six neighborhood friends play together at the Oak Street Tree House. One Saturday, they take the tablet used for playing games and send a message to God. They want to know who he really is.

At the end of the story God asks them to take good care of all they have seen so other children can also enjoy what he has created.
