The Day Hanna Hosanna Helped Cootie Judy

My friends weren’t really interested in art. Not like me. But small talk was our way of diminishing Kade’s power. We weren’t bullies. By not watching what happened next, we were reducing the size of the audience that witnessed Jude’s humiliation. That made us the nice girls . . . right? Jude Rohmann was that kid, the one everyone picked on and no one wanted to be seen with. After twelve months of pretending he didn’t exist, Hanna finally decided to stand up for him just once. Then she wished she’d continued pretending he didn’t exist. A contemporary Christian YA short story about noticing things-like boys with sad blue eyes. Approximately 33 pages.
