D R Swan

A Hero's Path D R Swan

Eleven-year-old Alice didn't know that she was about to become a hero. How could she know that she would be called upon to change the course of history? How could she stand up to that kind of pressure and how could she ever make the right choices to succeed? She was, after all, only eleven and small for her age at that. Was she really this brave? If you were to ask her, she would say no, but isn't that true of most heroes. Like Alice in "Alice in Wonderland" and Dorothy in the "Wizard of Oz," Alice is on a strange journey as her world is turned upside down when she stumbles upon an odd diary in an old dusty attic, but this wasn't like any other book that she had ever read and it sends her into a world where everything isn't the way it should be. As she reads the pages of the diary, it begins to interact with her in ways that, at first, are subtle but doesn't remain so. Soon, she seems to be living the things happening between those strange pages. The diary is about a young girl, Alice's age and Alice soon finds that she and the girl in the book seem to be on the same strange path...
