Publisher Comments:

The Columbine tragedy in April 1999 pierced the heart of our country. In December 1999, we learned that the teenage killers specifically targeted Rachel Scott and mocked her Christian faith on their chilling, homemade videotapes. Rachel Scott died for her faith. Now her parents talk about Rachel's life and how they have found meaning in their daughter's martyrdom in the aftermath of the school shooting. "Rachel's Tears" comes from a heartfelt need to celebrate this young girl's life, to work through the grief and the questions of a nation, and to comfort those who have been touched by violence in our schools today. Using excerpts and drawings from Rachel's own journals, her parents offer a spiritual perspective on the Columbine tragedy and provide a vision of hope for preventing youth violence across the nation.

The courage and conviction Rachel showed in her diaries and the honest emotions that leap from the pages from her family and friends made this a book I couldn't put down. I cried through parts but I was inspired to become a better friend, a better Christian and a better person.

i thought that it was really inspiring and sad at the same time. i did a paper on the columbine shooting for a college course and my instructor loved it. he thought that rachel and cassie were two of the most inspiring girls there.
