|  | | Cry for the Moon What would you do, if the people you loved asked you to do something you hated? What if they wouldn't take no for answer? Those are the questions Zach has to ask himself in this wonderfully original take on the classic werewolf tale. Cry for the Moon is a sometimes hilarious, sometimes heart-wrenching story of what it means to be human, and to remain true to what you believe in no matter how high the cost. Nominated for the 2010 Texas Lone Star Reading List for excellence in young adult literature, this book will touch your heart long after the last page.
Cry for the Moon is one of the most unusual stories you are likely to ever read. It has been called inspirational, thought-provoking, heartwarming, and impossible-to-put-down by several reviewers on Amazon and elsewhere. Although written in the first person from a child's perspective, the book is suitable for anyone from about the age of 10 and up, including adults. One of my highest priorities when writing is to create something that can be enjoyed by all ages (although different ages may very well enjoy different aspects of it).
