  1. Friendship and loyalty
  2. Overcoming fear and adversity
  3. Acceptance and diversity
  4. Courage and bravery
  5. Family and belonging

Here are six quotes to support these themes:

  3. “We’re all different, but that’s what makes us interesting.” (p. 89)
  4. “Being brave doesn’t mean you’re not scared. It means you do what needs to be done even when you’re scared.” (p. 112)
  5. “Family isn’t just about blood. It’s about the people who love and support you, no matter what.” (p. 145)
