"Author Tara C. Allred tells this remarkable story from multiple perspectives...a powerful story about murder and secrets in a small Utah town...compelling and unique." –Deseret News Mrs. Childs's creative writing students are expected to keep personal journals for self-expression. But when clues from a murder investigation cause police authorities to confiscate the students' journals, writing intended to be private is no longer. Words meant to liberate now condemn. And an innocent writing project, meant to empower students, as well as rescue Mrs. Childs from her own personal tragedy, now open deep conflicts within the class.KINDLE BOOK AWARD FINALIST - LITERARY FICTIONWHITNEY AWARD WINNER - GENERAL FICTIONSHELF UNBOUND BEST INDIE BOOK COMPETITION AWARD WINNER - RUNNER UP"A unique and richly interesting story of survival during some of the most complicated years of life; reminding us all about what is truly important." —The Book Stalker"The Other Side of Quiet has enough adventure and mystery to keep you turning pages, but also an underlying message of love and acceptance. This is a book that all teenagers, and parents should read. It will inspire you to believe in our youth, love them through their challenges, and leave you with a desire to be a better parent, teacher and friend." —Katie Millar Wirig, Founder of The Power of FamilyI am a firm believer in classroom read alouds, alongside in-depth class discussions. This book is a perfect read aloud for middle grade and high school classrooms. Students in your classroom can learn from the students in Mrs. Childs's classroom. The Other Side of Quiet brings up questions that students today should be asking and learning how to answer. This novel will help educators to discuss otherwise difficult concepts . . . and help students come out stronger with more understanding toward others. —Brittany Boman, former teacher, Alpine School District Venture Academy High School Creative Writing Students"The Other Side of Quiet is written with amazing craft. It portrays life and family situations that are not only relatable, but also intricately weaved into a story that will keep you reading until the very end." —Alana, age 15"Awesome book. Such a good read!" —Josh, age 15"An intriguing novel that can teach anyone important lessons about life and family. Tara C. Allred builds character that feel real, and that many can relate to in more ways than one, and builds suspense with a thrilling murder mystery. Reading this novel you will laugh, cry, and find a certain peace in its ending." —Berea, age 16
