Bright Light Shines Through the Blind
Description
This is a story of triumph over adversity. Of the impact of youthful vision and leadership. A young girl musters up the courage to launch a movement of real consequence. A movement that wages war on behalf of undernourished poor kids all across America. The success of the movement requires overcoming severe limitations, and recognizing the national child hunger crisis for what it is: an intolerable blight on our society. Even though the bright, vivacious 11-year-old survives a horrific accident, she suffers a major loss. During her recovery from surgery, she develops amazing abilities that defy analysis, but benefit her in various ways. Using a combination of prescience and inner fortitude, she compels classmates and adults to get off the sidelines and join the fight against malnutrition in children. She and her grandad, a well-known local restaurateur, show how food donors, restaurants, churches, and charitable organizations of all stripes can collaborate successfully to achieve objectives. Their well-coordinated efforts are effective in helping to provide nourishment to the 13,000,000 kids in America who too frequently go to bed hungry.
