13-year-old Diamond White is one of this year’s teen contestants on The X Factor. Watch the one of my favorite performances of her below where she shares her story of facing obstacles and soulfully sings “I’m With You” while competing with this season’s other teens at her coach Britney Spears’ home. I was inspired by her joyful personality and outlook, and how she sings with so much feeling and skill.

Keep shining, believing and following the dreams in your heart Diamond; you have great talent, the gem of an amazing career and are inspiring so many the way you have the confidence to sing before the world! There’s so much more in store for you – you will go far!

Book Pick for Teens: Finding the Perfect Wave by Cheri Miklich

Book Review by Julene Fleurmond, Editor of DreamerENT – I recommend this book for teens because of the themes that affect young adults

Finding the Perfect Wave is a great book that dives into the world of Alli Whitton, a 17-year-old avid surfer who seems to have it all together. When tragedy and change crashes into her world she has to learn to readjust, and to boldly face the rough trials in her path.

I really enjoyed the story and the way the the author created believable characters and situations that young people and adults can relate too. She also wasn’t afraid to delve into serious topics like losing a loved one and navigating the waters of rocky friendships, broken relationships and the feelings that come along with betrayal.

I found myself feeling for the main character Alli when she faced obstacles and especially when she felt out of place at times when starting at a new school. Of course a there was some romance weaved within, which I as a girl enjoyed, especially since the relationships didn’t go overboard like in other books and movies for young adults these days. The book is an encouragement to stand strong and have faith even when it seems that life is pounding on you from every side.

By the end I found myself wanting to find out more about Alli and her story, which thankfully I and other readers will be able to because Cheri has released a new sequel called Riding the Perfect Wave. You can order both books from her website at www.cherihmiklich.com.
