I Dare You
A new title in the Lightning Strikes series.
It’s not easy being the new kid at school. Especially when the local bully has it in for you. And when you’re challenged to do a stack of stupid dares. Can life get any worse? Deals with themes of brotherly love, coping with change, acceptance and having the strength to stand up for yourself.
