When two young women get into a quarrel at girls camp, their ­leaders sentence them to spend the night together away from the rest of the group. What happens to them in their solitary camp is the subject of “Night on Lone Wolf Mountain.” That and seven other new short stories by Jack Weyland are included in this volume.

Some of the young people in this book find themselves in difficult situations:

• A high-school history class is suddenly transformed into a battle zone when a disgruntled student brings a gun to school.
• A newly called missionary discovers what happens when he doesn’t tell the truth in his pre-mission interviews.
• A young woman who is investigating the Church has to defend her newfound faith to her favorite uncle, who just happens to be an ordained minister.

Jack Weyland knows what goes on in high school and how young people feel and act and speak. He knows how it feels when your parents misjudge your friends or act as though they don’t trust you. He can describe what it’s like to feel picked on and left out, and how it is when your leaders get on your case for not paying attention in church. But he also remembers how it feels to be young and full of energy, excited about being with friends, going to dances and activities, playing sports, and discovering you have a testimony.

This book will take you to girls camp, the shopping mall, school, and church—places you know all about. But what happens there will surprise and entertain you in these fun and thought-provoking stories by a favorite LDS author.
