Teen Fights for Equality in Power-Packed Novel


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Teen Fights for Equality in Power-Packed Novel

Although The Battle for Tomorrow: A Fable is a novel, its truths ring out loud and clear.

Sixteen-year-old Angela Jones is the primary caretaker of her invalid mother. Having taken on the responsibilities of an adult, she is still treated as a child by law. A 23-year-old political activist opens her eyes to the urgent issues facing humanity, including the sinking economy and catastrophic climate change, problems that will result in alarming consequences for the world.


Ange is arrested for participating in the non-violent blockade and occupation of the Capitol and winds up in a juvenile detention facility. While there, she finds herself fighting for the right to live independently, in opposition to the laws that require her to be released to a parent or guardian. The Battle for Tomorrow should be a rallying cry for all young people to fight for equal rights protection against age discrimination.


THE BATTLE FOR TOMORROW: A FABLE (ISBN: 978-1-61204-219-0) is available on April 27, 2011, for $18.95 and can be ordered through the publisher’s website:
