MOMENTS TO TREASURE FOR MOTHER AND CHILD

Just as the teen characters in Nancy Rue's Raise the Flag series continue to meet at the school flagpole to pray for one another, teens and preteens will continue to find encouragement and hope in stories that address vital issues and help them find strength to meet the greatest challenges in life–continuing with Book Five: Friends Don't Let Friends Date Jason.

Shy and unsure of herself, Marissa Martinez has never exactly been the center of anyone's attention. But when the "Perfect Boy," Jason Oakman, notices her at a True Love Waits youth rally, everything changes. Gorgeous, mature—and best of all, a Christian!—Jason can have any girl he wants. And it soon becomes clear that Marissa is the target of his affections.

The problem is, Jason wants to be a bit too affectionate-and with her aunt on her honeymoon, Ms. Race dealing with her own crisis, and all the Flagpole Girls being so busy, Marissa doesn't know where to turn. But just when the situation seems its worst, she gets just the support she needsa—and while learning what a beautiful person God has made her to be, Marissa begins to see that she is the center of Someone's attention after all.
