Synopsis

Lena's overnight fame as an actress, after being cast in a lead role in a film, continues to pull her into the spotlight, while teaching her what it means to shine for God. And now she's faced with her biggest challenge yet. When Lena's favorite music artist, Mallory Winston, sends her a gift box filled with photos and memories of their time on tour together, she finds out that new friends from the children's hospital they visited need help, including a little girl she became very fond of. The hospital is closing and the little girl's parents can't afford the ongoing care she needs. Now, Lena wants to find a way to help. Rallying the support of her school, friends, and family pulls together a huge concert to raise funds that features Mallory Winston. What she doesn't realize is that coordinating such a big event is harder than it looks. Lena must face the challenge of taking on a responsibility that sometimes seems too big for her to handle, and convincing others she won't give up. On this journey, Lena discovers that helping others comes at a cost, but what matters most in life cannot be bought. With the encouragement and mentoring she receives from her family and even Mallory, she is constantly reminded that God is her strength and his plan is bigger. This series by Alena Pitts, actress from War Room and tween blogger of For Girls Like You, is a reflection of her own life experiences as she reaches for the stars and keeps her faith in balance. Each adventurous book contains eight fun full-page interior illustrations.

About this title

Review:

'Tween girls LOVE fiction, but it doesn't always teach them the best values. That's why I'm so excited about Wynter Evans Pitts writing with her daughter Alena. This is a book series that will entertain your daughter's love of reading, but also introduce godly living. Enjoy!' --Dannah Gresh--Dannah Gresh

'Alena Pitts is an absolute treasure! She and her parents have a heart for ministry and for advancing God's kingdom. One of the best decisions we made in casting for the movie War Room was in choosing Alena to be Danielle. She not only brought an outstanding performance to the film, but she and her family were a joy to work with. We can look forward to great things from this little world changer.' --Stephen Kendrick--Stephen Kendrick
