Crown Up

Amid a civil war, a mother and daughter become refugees in Liberia, Africa. At a young age, Levia fled from her country with her mom. They came to America in hopes she would get an education and a better life. Although moving to a new foreign country would be a scary change for any child, Levia understood the political issues and poverty they'd left behind to achieve a successful and happier life. The "American Dream" that Levia thought she would have rapidly progressed into a full nightmare.

Alice gradually became mentally unstable, and Levia was placed in foster care, losing her only connection to her culture and herself. Through life–changing events, she must weather the strongest storms and navigate on faith, all in the hopes to see a rainbow at the end of it all.
