Morph, My Story

Morph, My Story, is a short story about a girl from Oklahoma. On a trip to the Florida Keys sponsored by Make a Wish, she gets the chance to swim with dolphins, both wild and captured. It's a week of new experiences for a girl that never saw the ocean before, and the start of a whole new life that nobody imagined (except for maybe her surprisingly wise grandma).

The story is told from the point of view of Kara, a teenager facing more challenges than the typical girl. A disease has hardened and deformed her skin making her the subject of unwanted stares when in public. As she competes against her increasingly inflexible exterior the simple act of smiling hurts. She lives her life within a very real shell and in the Florida Keys she gets the chance to break out in a fantastic way.
