The title of my chapter is about my life. The purpose of my chapter is to help people understand that I have a story to tell and people should listen. There are other kids like me. They have troubles too. I don’t want them to suffer like me. I hope this book helps people talk to their friends and families and talk about what’s on their mind. I don’t want people to hold it in. My art let me talk about things. My art helped me talk to people and I don’t do that. When I talked to people, it really helped me and now I am helping other people. I smiled when I found out this book will be in libraries around the world. My story, my art, it can help people. I feel good about that. The last time I helped someone, well, it’s been a minute. I am not sure I know when that was. I am smiling now. I am proud of myself. I am an author.
