This quote was said my a girl named, Maddie. She is a dancer and in 6 or 7th grade. The reason why this is important is because its true that with mental illness no one wants to admit their perfect. Especially that we are all aren't, the only one that is PERFECT is the one above! God is the only perfect man and God there will ever live. People with mental illness need help but they don't ask for it because they want to act "perfect and brave" even though no one is like that. So this book is telling us to encourage them to seek for help while being patient and nonjudgmental. God wants us to help others even without them looking. It takes courage to ask for help because we are afraid on what other people might say and we always think in our brains that they might judge us. That is why we are here on Earth, to help and care for others and especially if you need help, turn to God and rely on him with our problems.

All these quotes go together because I thought that it reminded me of being there TOGETHER. All these quotes are showing that the characters from the story are helping each other out and caring for a girl that has a learning disability named, Emma. The first quote was saying that they solved the case and Sasha did not get her spot back in the Gala because Sasha confessed about everything. This all happened because of Maddie, Jack, Nora, and Henry! If they didn't become detectives, then Louis, Emma's brother, would've been expelled but instead he got a in-school suspension for breaking into Sasha's locker and taking her bag.

The second quote is absolutely facts. No one should ever be afraid to be themselves! God made us and knew that we were perfect in our OWN ways. This story was known as anti-bulling and bullying because Sasha kept sending them blackmails and bullying people for no reason or its just how they look. Everyone is special just the way we are and we should embrace it.

Thank you for writing this book with all your strength. I loved the new lesson that I learned at the end from the book telling us that it is hard to ask for help and if we don't ask for help sooner, then we won't get any better at something in life. When I was 11-12 years old, it was hard for me to ask for help to my family members because I was afraid on what they will say back to me or what they will think of me. I'm so grateful to you that I get to learn something new over the quote that gives us a life lesson. The most favorite book that I read that you wrote was "I know your Secret" it was almost like "I know your Lying" but they were both different plots. I can't imagine how long it took for you to write this and how much effort you put it in. I am still trying to read more of your books that you wrote because I love your plots that you do. May God bless you and your family and may he continue to watch over you.Thank you so much for what you have done and letting me read your book!

Sincerely,

These are all the theme that I have found in the book! The first quote meant that Sasha kept bullying Emma because she has a learning disability. As I was reading, I was pretty mad about Sasha getting overboard for bullying and especially with a girl who has a learning disability. At that point, I just wanted to jump in the book and stand up for Emma. The real thing is that I can't even stand up for anyone in real life because of what other people would say about or think about me.

The second one is power of being honest. As the four kids became detectives and tried to solve the case of the "thief" little did they know that they grew closer and closer as they hung out more. They started to understand each other's feelings and secrets that they wanted to stop Sasha for good because of what she has done to everyone. Also meaning that they slowly started to trust each other and at the end, they all became best friends.

Of course Anti-bullying was basically the main one. The four kids were against bullying and that's why they were trying to stop Sasha. In order to stop her, they have to have evidence and prove that she has done everything so she can confess and to prove people that they aren't the "thieves".

Problem Solving is the main one. It's when you have to really solve a case but your actually an innocent person who did nothing wrong but was accused of something that you did not do. In order for you to prove them wrong, you have to but your detective caps on, turn on your brains, and start to SOLVE cases.

1) The author believes that we should stop bullying each other but to love one another.

2) The author believes that we should ask for help more then not ask for help because if we don't, we won't ever get better.

3) The author believes that whenever there is a bullying going on, we should stop and help each other out because if we don't they will go further and we will regret that we didn't stop the bully.
