Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 I was excited to go outside and play, but my mother kept the destination a secret. We drove up into the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains, and went for a walk on the grassy knolls behind my school, Eastwood Elementary.
#2 I hated how we were so conspicuous in our long-sleeved shirts, prairie dresses, and exceptionally long braids. We were the only family in town who wore such clothing.
#3 My mother used to play a game with me and my siblings where she would throw handfuls of feathers into the air and we would have to gather them up. She explained to us that words are like feathers, and that it is very easy for them to come out of our mouth, but very difficult to get them back in.
#4 I thought about how my mother used her words. She was kind and encouraging, and she prayed with us every night and morning. She would tell us stories, which would haunt us later as we grew up.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

I was excited to go outside and play, but my mother kept the destination a secret. We drove up into the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains, and went for a walk on the grassy knolls behind my school, Eastwood Elementary.

#2

I hated how we were so conspicuous in our long-sleeved shirts, prairie dresses, and exceptionally long braids. We were the only family in town who wore such clothing.

#3

My mother used to play a game with me and my siblings where she would throw handfuls of feathers into the air and we would have to gather them up. She explained to us that words are like feathers, and that it is very easy for them to come out of our mouth, but very difficult to get them back in.

#4

I thought about how my mother used her words. She was kind and encouraging, and she prayed with us every night and morning. She would tell us stories, which would haunt us later as we grew up.

#5

The story The Golden Windows was used to explain the world and how it was not as glorious as it seemed. It was used to squelch all of our questions about worldly things, such as getting a haircut, wearing lip gloss or nail polish, or anything that took us away from the polygamous family.

#6

My father had two vastly different lives. His public life was full of business success and renown, but his private life was full of conflict and turmoil. He had many wives and children, but he was also a member of the FLDS church, which required him to obey its leader, Uncle Roy.

#7

The Work has a lot of enemies, and it is up to God’s people to face persecution. As long as they remain faithful to the Work, God will protect them.

#8

I was often the victim of Irene’s rages. She would take any one of us she wanted for a beating, especially when Mom was at work. We had to hide to avoid being taken away.

#9

I was raped by Sterling, my stepfather, when I was 14. I was left bleeding and terrified in Irene’s room. My mother was friends with Irene, and if I ever told, I would be killed.

#10

I was seven years old when I was sexually abused by my stepfather. I was too young to understand what was happening to me, and I was too afraid to speak out. I learned to run fast, and I never let anyone catch me again.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

The birth of the twins was eagerly awaited by everyone except Irene. The birth of the twins meant that Mom and Irene would have an equal number of children, so Irene could no longer hold that over my mother’s head.

#2

I remember visiting Short Creek with my family when I was young, and I loved it there. The town was full of loving families, and the twins were born on the Prophet’s birthday in 1982.

#3

I loved my kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Garrett, and was excited to be in her class again. That fall, I received the most wonderful news: Mrs. Garrett would be teaching my first-grade class.

#4

I was fascinated by the dinosaurs and ecosystems of early earth life that I studied in school that year, but I was even more excited to learn about the solar system from an astronaut who visited my class. I fell in love with the violin, and played it night and day.

#5

I loved to play the piano, and I would practice for hours. I was also reading magazines that featured stories of lives being saved and hope provided by God. I was curious about these questions, but never asked them aloud.

#6

I was at Alta Academy for only two days when I first heard Mr. Jeffs speak on appropriate behavior between boys and girls. He seemed obsessed with ensuring we were keeping ourselves pure.

#7

I was constantly on my best behavior at Alta, as I was afraid of getting in trouble with Mr. Jeffs. I was constantly trying to stay out of trouble, but sometimes my Wall traits would emerge.

#8

At Alta Academy, we studied Priesthood History, Priesthood Math, and Priesthood English and Science. We were also taught about the importance of purity and morality.

#9

The church began to closely monitor and eliminate any information we received from the outside world. The teachers removed any cartoons, caricatures of animals or people different from us, from our textbooks.

#10

The television was a tool that my parents used to control me and my siblings, especially with the baby getting into things and the twins’ never-ending energy.
