Rollercoaster Time

AUTHOR Jacobs, Sheila
PUBLISHER CF4kids (01/01/2001)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description

This book faces up to a lot of issues and problems a lot of Christian teenagers may have to suffer in a school environment. I think that the author's display of Miss Fossett (the Sunday School teacher) has a message behind it because people are not always what they seem.



When Jane's Gran becomes seriously ill, she feels there is no-one she can turn to, but she ends up turning to her Gran, church youth leader and God for support. Her life becomes a bit of a rollercoaster when her parents inherit some money and want her to go to a private boarding school and her Gran becomes ill. There seems nothing for her to hold on to. When people around her become interested in the zodiac, Jane's Christian faith shines through and she stands up for what is right.



This book faces problems that teenagers face such as peer pressure and being a Christian when your parents aren't. This book shows how you can turn to God when there is nothing left. It is a good book suitable for 12-15 year olds.

Author: Jacobs, Sheila
Sheila Jacobs was born in South Korea and immigrated to United States when she was young. She is currently living in Sacramento, California, with her husband Herman and has two grown children, Nicholas and Jennifer. Sheila graduated from San Jose State University with a Bachelors in Art and has been teaching art for over 20 years. Sheila is active with her art shows throughout California. She has Master Painter Standing through the Northern Californian Arts Inc. and has received numerous awards. She believes it's in our innate nature to create, each creation dipping into one's soul who we are, our cultures, our experiences, our life's joys and sorrows. Along with it, our attitude and our wildest imagination and fantasies. The creative process can be soul searching, reflective, relaxing to an extent, but quite intense at times. She enjoys learning, exploring and expanding in all aspects of art to form her outward expressions.
