Wake-Up Stories is more than a book—it’s a wake-up call. Each story explores the emotional, psychological, and real-world consequences of split-second decisions. These narratives reflect real patterns happening in communities across the country, highlighting the ripple effects of violence on families, mothers, and entire generations.

This book was written to prevent loss—not to celebrate it. It speaks directly to young readers, parents, mentors, and anyone who believes change begins with awareness.

Because sometimes one story can save one life.
