Amanda Todd was a young girl who dealt with bullying for three years.  Lured into a bad decision by a cyber-stalker when she was only 12 years old, she was mercilessly targeted online and in real life over and over again, until it became more than she could deal with.

She wanted to help other kids by sharing her story and letting them know they should never be punished for who they are or for making a mistake.  AmandaToddLegacy.org is an organization that reaches out to kids in need, educates about the harmful effects of bullying and provides resources that can make a real difference.

If you don’t know Amanda’s story, you can search her on YouTube and see a video she made 3 weeks prior to taking her own life (she tells her story) because of 3 years of vicious bullying.

When people try to bring you down, it’s because you’re above them.

You only need one person to believe in you… that person is YOU.

With love to Princess Snowflake and others in need…

A MESSAGE FROM KAHLEN AYMES

I was approached by Flirty Dirty Book Blog after the RT Convention last May about this cause so I researched Amanda’s story and like so many others, was moved to tears. I have a daughter that is just a year or two younger than Amanda was when she ended her life. I asked Denise Tung… “What if we put together a book where 100% of the proceeds went to help fund the anti-bullying effort?” She was thrilled with the idea and then I reached out to some of my author- friends. The response was overwhelming and the rest, as they say, is history.

Now it is 16 stories (some missing scenes from a popular series) and some brand new short stories, from 16 authors that reach across the Young Adult, New Adult and Romance genres. It is our hope that our readers will come together to support this very worthy cause and that we can help, in some small way, to keep even one more child from suffering from this horrific epidemic…

These are very generous women and I feel honored to share pages with them.

Stories for Amanda is an amazing compilation of short stories by some of my favorite authors.  It is a must read for everyone, especially parents and is benefiting such a great cause.  Bullying is happening everywhere in society today.  And now with social media playing such a big part in it, parents really need to be on their toes to protect their children.  Each and every story in this book was an eye-opener on what is really happening in the world today.  As a parent it sickens me that this is happening among the youth today.  I hate that it can be done so anonymously with no repercussions.  Amanda Todd’s life was cut far to short and I only hope and pray that by bringing awareness to everyone that maybe things will start to change. Please everyone do yourself a favor and purchase Stories for Amanda.  Not only are you donating to a good cause you are getting such a fantastic and eye-opening book to read.

5 ***** does not even do it justice, there really is no way to rate this book high enough.
