Her mother resorts to an old drinking habit, her best friend dumps her, and she gets stuck with the most unpopular girl in school. It takes courage to read a poem in front of her homeroom class, but she’s even more courageous when she places crosses on a hill as a way to measure the cost of war. She faces the consequences of her actions at the final poetry slam, when her injured father comes home. For Anne Marie, this is a life-changing event. She discovers the daughter of a warrior must be a warrior, too.Easley, Maryann is the author of 'Warrior's Daughter ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781424148752 and ISBN 1424148758.
