Scars Within, Courage Without

The worst scars aren't on your face, they are inside your head. There is this kid,

Derry, who hides from the world because acid burned his face. He meets Mr. Lamb,

an old guy with a tin leg who refuses to pity him. Lamb teaches him that isolation is

the real enemy, telling him that hating people burns you up worse than acid ever could.

Derry finally finds the courage to ignore the stares and runs back to his friend, only to find Lamb

has died falling from a ladder. It is tragic, but the old man’s legacy lives on

because Derry finally decides to stop hiding and face the world.
