Résumé

For avid readers, veterans of life's challenges, and observers of human nature, this is an inspirational collection of funny, family-friendly short stories that explore the theme of being insecure about yourself. Through seven brief humorous skits that exhibit gentle sarcasm in genres ranging from silent film to paranormal romance, Shakespearean drama, and fairy tale courts, teens and adults try to figure out what to do as kids grow up and relationships between grownups change.
With a lack of perfection in the journey, of course!Through intrigue (Sarcophagus; The Destiny of Princes); comedy (In the End the Story Ended; A Matter of Life and Hair) and personal growth (Ella Substituted; Movies at the Beach; Everwood), people become wiser about themselves. Beneath three cases of mistaken identity; some long Rapunzel-type hair that has become a fire hazard; a war between mummies, vampires, and teenagers; and a royal argument over fashion--there is an underlying tone of wistfulness and an acknowledgment that growing up and growing older are both pretty tricky challenges.
If you feel you wouldn't have life any other way than its faulty self, you'll find something to enjoy in this book.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Sarah Scheele

?Sarah Scheele is the author of numerous books for younger readers. Her books often appeal to a "for the whole family" sensibility making them accessible to adults, as well as bridging numerous age subcategories within YA, from Middle Grade to New Adult.  She lives on a third-generation family farm in Texas, was homeschooled long before other people had even heard of the idea, and grew up surrounded by big blue skies, winding gravel roads, and the great classics of literature.
Her independent, somewhat isolated existence meant the friends she made in these books--titles as varied as Little Women and The Lord of the Rings--had a reality to her almost equal to the close-knit circle of people she knew in real life. This sense of respect for people in general, which sprang from having very few in her life, permeates her books with emotional nuance and terse interactions between people expressed with simplicity.
In her style of fiction, every detail matters--most of all the little things and the things we take for granted.  A published author for the last 15 years, she has an extensive repertoire of young adult fiction titles, divided into four trilogies. 2023 saw the beginning of the publication of complete trilogy editions for the first three trilogies. Her next standalone title will be Temmark Osteraith, the third book in the Prince's Invite Trilogy.
She was also for 8 years a Pomeranian owner--and Pom would undoubtedly have said she was a devoted fan as well.  Her website is www.sarahscheele.com and her newsletter can be subscribed to by email by visiting the website or by RSS here http://feeds.feedburner.com/SarahScheelecom-News
