    About this ebook

    Peter, Karen, Brad, Liza, Edward, and Alex have already learned many valuable lessons in their young lives. Through all their challenges, each has come to realize that life is like school, people are the tests, and it is up to them to apply lessons learned to their everyday experiences.

    In this collection of short stories, each character faces challenges, makes new friends, and embraces differences. Peter is thrilled he is going to Disneyland on a field trip, but first, he must overcome his brother’s bullying. Karen is facing an uncertain relationship with her new stepmother. Brad is struggling with dyslexia. Liza is hoping a family announcement won’t put a wrench in her plans to go on a dream vacation. As each character attempts to overcome obstacles, their tribulations lead them to some of the happiest places on Earth where they will once again, learn valuable lessons.
