The Campaign
Many young people are brought up in the faith of their family, without ever really having the chance to choose for themselves. It's too often assumed that people have to 'opt-out' of a religion, rather than making a positive choice for themselves.
Alom's book tells how he made that choice and shows that you can make moral choices without a religious faith to guide you.
School is where we go to learn how to ask questions. It seemed to us that making the book available through school libraries is a good first step in educating young people so that they can choose to exercise their freedom of choice.

Greg Jameson, Entertainment Focus
"An honest and often very moving story about valuing truth over hope, even in the face of grief."
Tim Minchin
"Illuminates the route to a better destination for all those who seek what Alom found: namely, that precious liberty of mind which makes its possessor open to all good things."
