Synopsis

Ten stories. All different. All awesome.
This book is packed with ten totally different stories from ten awesome authors -- and every single one is full of surprises, big feelings, and moments you'll never forget. No two chapters are alike (just like no two kids are!). One story might make you laugh out loud, another might give you goosebumps, and a few might even make you think, "Whoa... that could totally happen to me."
It's like a mystery grab-bag of stories -- you never know what's coming next, but trust us: once you start reading, you won't want to stop.
