"What's wrong with me? I'm as ugly on the outside as I feel on the inside. I'll never fit in . . ."
That's what Gracie Gannon thought. The popular girls at school made fun of her, her very best friend ignored her, and life was getting very difficult at home. Everything seemed hopeless until Gracie met several people who changed her life and she discovered her own true beauty and a future filled with unlimited possibilities.
