Synopsis
Confused by her ability to feel other people's feelings, highly sensitive Jenna comforts herself by rescuing dead animals and escaping from elementary school. When her parents divorce, her mentally ill grandmother moves in and her sensitive uncle commits suicide. After the funeral, Jenna begins to read the messages coming in through her senses more clearly, as comforting guidance and premonitions about love, life, people and the planet. This is a decade-long journey of a girl whose nervous system is intricately developed, leading to sensory highs and emotional lows. Every secret thought and fear of this sensitive child (ages 6-17) is revealed here. Since 15-20% of kids and adults have the trait of high sensitivity, this perspective needs to be heard. The story addresses a sensitive child/teen's anxiety, sadness, courage, and urgent desire to do good things for the world. Edited by Emmy Award winner Molly McKitterick. Endorsed by Psychologist Elaine Aron and Author, Coach Eva Gregory.

From the Inside Flap
On Faith: When life turns the lights out on you, you re never, ever in the dark, the minister addressed the congregation using a small silver handheld microphone because the light of truth always has a way of shining in earnest. His words caused the church to buzz with drones and murmurs, hundreds of hmmms and hissing whispered yesssss s. Spreading his left arm out to demonstrate the brilliance of the candlelight he continued on. Our friend knew something about shining his light, even though, as we all know, he didn t have much but darkness in his early life. I think his favorite saying was, You won t have no future until you shine a spotlight on your past. He gave us an example of how to take your past and let it make you richer. The thing was that he didn t cling to his past or dwell on it, but then he didn t try to deny it or bury it away either. He just dredged it all up and moved it out, using the pain of the process to press on and grow. I ve known him a long time, watching him as he grew, and I ve seen him truly refine himself, using every opportunity he could to keep his heart s integrity. His example reminded me personally to be humble, to put my own pain out in the light, and say, This is what happened. And these are my feelings about it. "
