"From a New Year's Eve party in Elmer, New Jersey to a prison in Devon, England, Anne Bradshaw weaves tales that will leave youth and adults alike laughing, crying, and best of all thinking. Bradshaw's stories are witty, wise, and filled with wonder. I've found the perfect gift for my nieces and nephews."
--Jeffrey Scott Savage, author of the Shandra Covington Mysteries, and the new fantasy series, Farworld.
"Think Chicken Soup-meets-John Bytheway and you get Please, No Zits! & Other Short Stories for LDS Youth."
--LDS Review
"Bradshaw is very good at presenting ordinary people in ordinary situations, who call upon extraordinary powers of faith and goodness to help them make sense of the world around them. The stories in this book do not plumb the depths of spirituality, nor do they challenge the reader to work through complex plotlines and multi-layered characters. Instead, these are stories of the folks next door, of the kids who sit next to you in Sunday School, of, perhaps, your own children.
"Please, No Zits! will be enjoyed by young people anxious for a good story, and by parents who will find themselves reading these stories to their children. I can envision some interesting conversations, opportunities for young people and their parents to discuss the things that really matter - those things that will last into eternity. Parents and children do need to talk with each other more often, and these stories can be an exciting way to engage your children in ways that will stay with them forever."
