From her first day in high school, April knows she doesn’t have what it takes to earn a college scholarship. She encounters a wise school counselor who turns her world upside down and begins to teach April invaluable life skills through a series of encounters … then everything begins to change for April.

In this moving tale based on true stories, you will learn how the game of chess can develop a strategic mindset and produces the rare ability to graciously handle setbacks.

This success parable weaves powerful life lessons into a gripping story which you cannot set down. Discover the world beyond what you see and move into the realm of possibilities.
