Save the Lemmings

By Kai Strand

Eighth grade inventor, Natalie Edwards, doesn't mind that her classmates cringe at her inspirational sayings and monochromatic outfits. Her parent's love and the support of her three best friends make it easy to ignore the eye rolls and head shakes. But after her invention, the Texty-Talky, goes nationwide, the media considers her the new "IT" girl and it changes everything at school, at home, and with her friends. Then a reporter prints a story about Natalie's unfortunate graffiti incident and even her squeaky clean reputation is shattered. Natalie's sunny disposition is stretched to the limits when reports surface of her stealing her invention from aliens. She's desperate to regain control of her life before she loses everything to the media storm. Will she be able to disprove the lies being printed and stay true to who she really is? Or will the pressure prove too much?

Kai Strand

When her children were young and the electricity winked out, Kai Strand gathered her family around the fireplace and they told stories, one sentence at a time. Her boys were rather fond of the ending, “And then everybody died. The end.” Now an award winning children’s author, Kai crafts fiction for kids and teens to provide an escape hatch from their reality. With a selection of novels for young adult and middle grade readers Kai entertains children of all ages, and their adults.
