Dragonflies

She never asked to be brave. But sometimes, bravery finds you. Jordan has never needed to prove her strength—until now. When she’s chosen to step onto the football field to protect her brother’s place, she faces something tougher than tackles: judgment. Whispers in the halls. Doubts in the crowd. And the pressure to stand her ground… alone.

Gabriel has a choice to make. So does everyone else. In Kenton Woods, Gabriel is torn between the life he left and the one he’s building right here. But when Jordan faces unfair treatment, he knows what matters most: standing beside someone when it counts. Even if you’re not sure how.

Because courage isn’t loud—it’s loyal. And respect isn’t given—it’s earned. As friendships are tested, secrets are kept, and unlikely allies emerge, the students of Kenton Woods Middle learn what it means to fight for someone else—and to let others fight for you. All while their principal, “the dragon,” watches from behind stern eyes… quietly cheering for her dragonflies to soar.

She stood up for her brother. Now it’s her turn. And she’s not alone.

🐉 For every kid learning how to speak up—and every grown-up hoping they'll stand together when it matters most… this story is yours.
