Waiting for the Light to Change (Soft Cover Book) by Annette Haws
Item #1-59955-156-X
Sarah's had difficult years before -- what high school teacher hasn't? -- but this year is the worst. Although Sarah's managed as a single mother well enough, she's frequently exhausted and still angry at the curves life has thrown her way. Shepherding her painfully shy daughter, Jenny, through high school as well as dealing with the return of her ex-husband shakes Sarah's fragile equilibrium. Additional trouble comes through the classroom door with two senior boys who are determined to undermine Sarah and dominate her debate team.

Can Sarah let go of her negative feelings for her ex-husband? Will those feelings prevent Sarah from finding happiness in her life? This inability to forgive drives a wedge between Sarah and her family, bringing them tragedy.

This is a story for anyone who has ever known heartache and hope or overcome difficult obstacles. It is also a story about the dedicated people who teach children. Annette Haws has a clear, steady voice as she opens a window into the troubled world of adolescent angst and teachers trying to see into that world.
