Hyde pulls off a poignant, gutsy ending without bathos' - LOS ANGELES TIMES ********************************************************************************* THE EXTRADORINARY STORY OF A PERFECT IDEA... It all started with the social studies teacher's extra-credit project: Think of an idea for world change, and put it into action. Whilst this proved a little ambitious for most of his classmates, twelve-year-old Trevor thought he would start by doing something good for three people. But instead of paying him back, he would ask them to "pay it forward" by doing a favour for three more people. If it all went to plan, Trevor thought, it would be the start of a long chain of human kindness . . . Sound unlikely to you? Well a lot of other people had their doubts too - Trevor's teacher, his classmates, his mother, in fact everyone in his small California town. It could never really work. . . could it? Now a feature film starring Helen Hunt and Kevin Spacey.

Book excerpt: Pay It Forward means to do a random act of kindness for another in hopes that it touches the receivers heart and they in turn continue to pass on the kindness to others. The intent is to reach out to those who might need an encouraging word to keep moving forward. Support from strangers does wonders for both the volunteers and those on the receiving side of love. When you spend time with those in trying situations, you find you are not alone. Often times you discover your situation does not even compare to what others are going through, and its with this revelation that your heart opens with compassion and healing for your own situation. By spreading love, the hope is to create a ripple effect of kindness throughout our streets, zip codes, cities, states, and eventually the world.

Book excerpt: ★ “Tender, amazingly hopeful . . . vibrant and heartbreaking.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review This deeply felt, redemptive novel reveals the story of two teens whose lives intersect in unexpected ways that explose them to both the dark corners and hidden joys of life’s journey–and the remarkable resilience of the human soul. Meet Jordy. He’s on his own in New York City. Nobody to depend on; nobody depending on him. And it’s been working fine. Until this girl comes along. She’s 18 and blond and pretty–her world should be perfect. But she’s seen things no one should ever see in their whole life–the kind of things that break a person. She doesn’t seem broken, though. She seems . . . innocent. Like she doesn’t know a whole lot. Only sometimes she does. The one thing she knows for sure is that the world is an ugly place. Now her life may depend on Jordy proving her wrong. So they hit the road to discover the truth–and there’s no going back from what they find out.
