Just Like Elizabeth Taylor

by Lu Ann Brobst Staheli

Overview

Twelve-year-old Liz Taylor has known for a long time that she would escape-escape the abuse against herself-escape her mother's boyfriend Mark. Liz just doesn't know how or when. Then the perfect opportunity comes-money left on the table by Mark-and Liz is on the run. But a girl her age doesn't have many options when it comes to hideouts, making a K.O.A. Kampground and a nearby middle school her perfect choices. If only she can keep her true identity secret, Liz knows she can make it on her own, until she realizes she must face her situation head on if she is to save herself and her mom.

About the Author

Lu Ann Brobst Staheli got her start as a celebrity paparazzi-stalker-chick, which led to her award-winning career as a ghostwriter for celebrity memoirs. A masochist at heart, she taught junior high school English for 33 years and then moved to the school library. She once spent two weeks summer vacation backpacking through Europe with 15 of her students. She has won three Best of State Medals--two for writing and one for teaching--but refuses to wear them all at the same time because she'd hate to be known as a show-off.
