    About this ebook

    Stuck in a Day Dream is a simple story about a young boy and the journey he refuses to embark on. In the middle of high school, he finds himself, like most teens, torn between what people expect him to do and should do versus what he wants to do. He was adamant on choosing the latter. This novel is a book that speaks to many, in our present age, who are both very much alike and unlike the protagonist. Its a thoughtful conversation with those unsure of themselves on how to become so and offers assurance to those who are. In our day and age where individual uniqueness is constantly being leveled among others, this novel speaks to each young person about what it means to be young and how to remain so.

    About the author: Raised in brampton ontario, attended elementary and secondary school within brampton. An alumni of the university of Guelph, class of 2017, graduating with a bachelor of arts in the psychology and philosophy concentrations. An athlete, and a true child of the times. My inspiration for this book were the people around me. Those lost and confused with little direction with who they were and who they should be and the struggles they faced as a result. this novel was written with the belief that a book about life, should be written because of, and based on, life itself and what experience both directly and indirectly.
