My name's Bryn Mathis. I'm seventeen years old, and I live in a neighborhood outside of Orlando, Florida. I live alone because my dad died almost a year ago, along with all the other adults in the world. I'm almost out of food, and the gangs of kids that roam around my town are getting more vicious by the day. It's time for me to leave and find another place to live … a place where I can find food and shelter … a place where they won't be able to find me. Alone, it might have been possible; but now I've got company, and I'm worried that I don't have what it takes to get from here to my final destination. And I have no idea what might be waiting for me when I get there.

Elle Casey's favorite reads from her childhood.
Have you and your teen read all of Elle's books listed above? Do you want to read the same books that inspired Elle to become a writer? Here are some of her favorites:
- The Girl Who Owned a City by O.T. Nelson
- A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle
- Children in Hiding by Charlene Joy Talbot
- The Secret Garden and The Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett
- Are You There God? It's Me Margaret by Judy Blume
- Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens
- And about The Boxcar Children by Gertrude Chandler Warner, she says, “I only ever read the first book in the series, but I swear I read that thing maybe 30 times! Even as an adult I’ve gone back and re-read it. That was my first kind of post-apocalyptic read. Of course the world was still turning, but the main characters' parents died and they were basically shoved out of the real world and into one of their own making, surviving using their own ingenuity. I read anything similar that I could get my hands on after that.”
Don't forget, the love of reading is a priceless gift that you can pass on to the next generation.
Happy reading! –Elle
