Introduction:
Beautiful Mind is part of a series of teen fiction books for girls. These books tell stories of how young women become stronger and more confident after going through difficult situations. This particular story is about Xin Lan, who finds she has a gift for helping others after surviving a terrible accident that propels her to the darkest depths of despair. It is said that everyone has a breaking point. For 17-year-old Xin Lan, that point comes when she's hit by a car and loses both her legs. Devastated by the prospect of spending her life in a wheelchair, Xin Lan becomes suicidal. However, things begin to change when she accidentally picks up a suicide hotline call that was meant for her father, who is a psychiatrist. She persuades the young boy on the other end of that call not to kill himself, and in doing so, she persuades herself. Xin Lan decides to use the empathy she has gained from her own pain to help others. With guidance from her father, Xin Lan is able to help several of her peers through very difficult situations. Ultimately, it is because of her darkest hour that Xin Lan discovers her true gift and passion in life.
