Six hundred injured. One hundred sixty-eight dead. A city afraid. A nation scarred. Central to the word terrorist is the root word - terror. It's a word synonymous with fear and trembling. In Crumbling Spirit, Julia quickly learns the definition to the word, but as time passes, she also decides that it will not define her! Julia is a typical fourth grader. She struggles in school and can't wait until summer vacation at the local amusement and water parks. What happens when a normal life is interrupted by tragedy? How is a normal girl to react? |
