Истории Altruism

Mara often detaches herself from the world, enough to feel indifferent towards the constant surveillance from her parents. Her future has practically been decided for her by pairing her with Sasha, a strangely beautiful guy with just enough wealth to be considered a perfect match.

When a small change in her routine leads her to a bakery, she encounters Hannah, a kindhearted worker who sees life through rose-colored lenses. A complicated and at times destructive connection ensues, threatening to destroy everything Mara has meticulously built. How much will Hannah be willing to overlook as she attempts to embrace a person with edges sharp enough to draw blood?

A poem about altruism in humans

All Trina and her little brother Andrew want is to find a way back home, but maybe there are other things that are just as important. Trina and Andrew are transported to Rumaya, a world filled with nymphs and ents, talking flowers and animals, and mythical creatures Trina has only heard of in books. Some are friendly and some are not, but Trina develops friendships and begins to overcome her shyness as she tries to find a way back home. The more attached she becomes to the others she meets in Rumaya, the harder it is to focus just on her own need to get home. Should she help Daphne save her laurel tree, or comfort a lonely hippalectryon, even if it means passing up a way to get home? While following Daphne's prophecy, Trina discovers that sometimes our choices can lead to pain and sacrifice, but sometimes the sacrifice is worth the cost. Just as her teacher advocates at the start, Trina realizes that altruism and kindness have their own rewards.
