"After a catastrophic automobile accident, Kelley wakes up in the hospital to find that her face and body are severely burned. She feels isolated and alone as she agonizes through skinny raft operations, painful dressings, and hand exercise that seem like torture. But with the help of her friends and family, a kind nurse, and understanding doctors and therapist, she had is able to survive and even triumph. Then she finds out that she has to wear an ugly plastic mask so that her facial skin won't grow back puffy and hard. How will Kelley ever face the world again?" Its a very good book but I recommend it for older kids 10 or older. The book also teaches that god makes and lets things happen for a reason. The book is made by Priscilla Cummings. I got my book at ollies but I'm sure they are sold at other places too. I have no idea if its based on a true story or not but either way its a good book
