Synopsis

Lemonade is served… again, with Lemonade Stand: Volume II

The twenty brave storytellers in this book each share a short, true story on a major obstacle they’ve had in life and how they managed or overcame—changing the conversation around identity, equity, inclusion, faith, ability, friendship, and resilience. 

Inside you’ll find a transforming look at a young woman who finds hope while a loved one struggles with addictions, a son who loses a father by suicide and raises awareness through an armwrestling competition, and the child of Vietnamese refugees who explores the idea of culture, humanity, and identity—and more!

When life gives you lemons, squeeze, add sugar and pick up a copy of Thei’Mpossible Project’s Lemonade Stand: Volume II.
