Every middle and high school library should have at least one copy of this book.  It Gets Better is a compilation of essays and statements created by a huge variety of people, from Barack Obama to Ellen Forney to a freelance writer living in Los Angeles.  Each of the messages target teenagers in middle and high school who are bullied because of their sexuality.  Many of the messages tell personal stories of teenage bullying, and seek to communicate to bullied teens that life will get better after high school.  Even though this focuses on GLBTQIA teens, the message will hit home for any troubled young person.  Simply having this volume in the library will send a signal of hope and safe space to GLBTQIA patrons, and, hopefully, to everyone else as well.
