I have a granddaughter who is a senior in high school this year.  She has been involved in theater classes all four years.
She is a student director for the first production this year....Dracula.  She is really getting a lot of ideas from this book.
My husband and I both read it before we gave it to her.  She already knew about several of the plays and was excited
to now have the book.  All drama kids should have it.

This well written account of a true story is excellent.  As a history buff, I find it fascinating, but I also believe that it is so entertaining that non-history buffs, who just enjoy a good story, will also love it.  Highly recommended.

This is a heartbreaking, but yet a wonderful true story. Mary Griffith was a woman determined to be right with God. She was a very religious Christian woman, and when she found out her son was gay she would not take that lightly. She made her son Bobby believe God could "cure" him of his homosexuality if he only tried harder and prayed more.

This book includs journal entries from Bobby Griffith, and gives the reader insight into what he was like, and also what he might have become. He struggled with his homosexuality for 5 years before committing suicide.

After his suicide Mary Griffith was on a search for truth. She couldn't understand why God would allow her son to kill himself rather than cure him. However, Mary Griffith has learned from the tragedy and this book shares the knowledge she's gained. It's a story about a broken spirit, but also about a spirit that won't give up, and certainly won't die. Truly remarkable, and I recommend this to anyone that is related to a gay person, or is friends with a gay person. In addition, I recommend this to all the people out there that think that homosexuality is a sin because it will cause you to look at this issue from a different perspective. Truly a groundbreaking and remarkable story.
