Book Cover & Preview Text
DO I MATTER? Carefully, piece by piece, my shell came together. It protected me. It shielded me. It kept me safe. It left me alone. But do I belong alone? Do I matter? The sound continues. They continue to knock. They try to enter. But why do they persist? Do they really care? Does this mean I am someone? Does this mean I matter?
