Jazmin's Notebook
Jazmin Shelby was born with clenched fists. But that's okay, because she's got a lot of fighting ahead of her. Her father died, her mother is in the hospital, and all Jazmin has left is her big sister, CeCe. But she's fine because she has her friends, big plans for the future, and a zest for life and laughter that's impossible to resist.
