Böcker av Kristy Griffin Aragon

Ricky Raccoon is your typical twelve-year-old raccoon. He had good friends, liked to game and play ball, and was doing just fine. That is until his dad had to uproot the family and move to a new state because of a job transfer. Ricky tried to be optimistic about the big change, but it really changed big when he discovered what it was like to be the target of bullying. Billy the Bullying Bull was the school terror, and Ricky had become his new focus. Join us in Ricky's adventure as he discovers new things about others, true meaning in life, and the strength in himself!

My son was fourteen at the time when he came to me and said that life was so hard sometimes he wished he could just go to heaven. I should have been disturbed by his statement, but all I could do was relate. He inspired me to write The Little Flower. Kids go through so much, from divorces to bullying, peer pressure, and feeling like they just don't fit in. I've wanted to write a series of books that deal with these issues. It is not only my hope that these books will help kids see that there is a purpose for us and that if we stay strong, we will see good come out of even the hardest of times; it is also my hope that these books will speak to us adults as well! Thank you for reading my very first book, The Little Flower. It is very dear to my heart, and I pray it touches yours.
