Story Behind The Book
Written in part as a response to too many news accounts of bullied LGBT teens taking their own lives, Beneath Angel’s Wings shows the ripples of change a person can make in the life of a bullied teen when he or she chooses to do what’s right instead of what’s easy. E. Summers passionately believes in the American ideal that all men and women are created equal and deserve equal rights and protections. This is especially true for LGBTQ kids, who too often face what they perceive as insurmountable prejudice and hate, not just from their peers, but from their families and communities as well. To support this cause, Summers will donate half of the proceeds from the sale of Beneath Angel’s Wings to charitable organizations whose goals are to improve the lives of LGBTQ youth.
