It includes everything from the diminutive, but powerful, haiku to free verse poems exploring the lives of abused children. All royalties generated from the project will go to fund art programs for children in juvenile detention centers. The seeds for the book were planted when selections of my writing were used with at-risk youth to foster artistic expression and encourage creative outlets for healing and growth. Your purchase of this book helps put paint brushes and pens into the hands of these children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valdaren Media, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47056642310384,"sku":"9781944939021","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781944939021_p0.jpg?v=1763791829","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781944939021","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
