(RIPR) -
If we're blessed with good fortune, as we travel through life we become wiser and wiser as we learn from the people and the challenges we encounter along the way about things that matter - about the true meaning of friendship, for instance, or about what it means to really trust another person. And this sort of wisdom seems so very special when it comes out of the mouth of a 13-year-old, Lena Rich, who is already wise about what it means to be courageous.

Rich lives with her family in Providence, where she is an eighth-grade student at the Wheeler School. In her free time, Lena enjoys playing tennis, piano, rowing, swimming, and, especially, writing. In 2010, Lena was awarded 1st place for fiction writing from the Rhode Island Council of Teachers of English.
