A boy on the run. A girl determined to find him. A compelling fantasy looks at issues of privilege, protest, and justice. All light in Chattana is created by one man — the Governor, who appeared after the Great Fire to bring peace and order to the city. For Pong, who was born in Namwon Prison, the magical lights represent freedom, and he dreams of the day he will be able to walk among them. But when Pong escapes from prison, he realizes that the world outside is no fairer than the one behind bars. The wealthy dine and dance under bright orb light, while the poor toil away in darkness. Worst of all, Pong’s prison tattoo marks him as a fugitive who can never be truly free. Nok, the prison warden’s perfect daughter, is bent on tracking Pong down and restoring her family’s good name. But as Nok hunts Pong through the alleys and canals of Chattana, she uncovers secrets that make her question the truths she has always held dear. Set in a Thai-inspired fantasy world, Christina Soontornvat’s twist on Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables is a dazzling, fast-paced adventure that explores the difference between law and justice — and asks whether one child can shine a light in the dark.

Christina’ Secret is the twelfth book that Mrs. Beckley has written for Xlibris. This book introduces the reader to some new characters, and to some old ones from her previous books. Christina has a reading comprehension problem, but her teachers Sister Mary Gabrielle, Sister Mary Ellen, and her classmates are very supportive even though she wants to keep it a secret. There one assignment on the book, The Doll in the Garden: A Ghost Story By Mary Downing Hahn, really helps her with her reading comprehension problem, as Sister Mary Ellen teaches her a trick that helped her in math class so many years ago. This was one thing that my dad taught me, and it has helped me immensely with memory skills. I hope it will help you too. This is an interactive book, and you can do the assignments in the book along with the characters in the book. I hope it will help you, and you will come to enjoy reading anything and everything as much as I do. I hope you have enjoyed Peggy, The Three-Some Book 2, The Writer’s Corner Book 3, The Golden Nugget Book 4, Emily Book 5, This Is As Good As It Gets Book 6, The 1940 Diary Book 7, Pockets Book 8, Pam and Jodi’s Journey Book 9, The Journal Book 10, The Reunion Book 11 and Christina’s Secret Book 12. This book has been written for my friends, and family especially Angela, Bobbie, Aunt Edwina, Gwen, Jane, Jean, Kate, Peggy, Renee, Susan, Father Andy, Father Don, Sister Mary De Chantel, my parents Fred, and Elizabeth, and finally my classmates from NPHS Fred, Lynne and Robert. Thank you all for giving me such a good idea for this book. If any of you are wondering if I fashioned any of the characters after me, the answer is yes. Christina and I had the same problem in reading comprehension until my parents helped me with it so many years ago. Andi is fashioned after my mother, because, she was a wonderful cook and baker as well as a high school English teacher. Thank you, so much mother and dad. You gave me such a wonderful start in life and, a wonderful thirst for reading. A lot of the experiences in this book happened to my family and me on our many travels or in the classroom as a student or as a teacher.
