More than my scars : the power of perseverance, unrelenting faith, and deciding what defines you

Summary: "The first thing you will notice when you meet Kechi Okwuchi is her scars. One of just two survivors of a devastating plane crash that killed more than one hundred people, sixteen-year-old Kechi was left with third-degree burns over 65 percent of her body. More Than My Scars is her incredible story. A story of not just surviving impossible odds but thriving in a world that is too often caught up with how we look on the outside to remember that our true value is within. Kechi's strong sense of identity, rooted in seeing herself the way God sees her, has allowed her to live authentically in a world that constantly seeks to define us by its ever-changing (and ever-shallow) standards. Her story will inspire you to love and accept yourself as you are and confidently present your true self to the world."--publisher's website.
