Local author publishes new children’s book

Jane Grahl, a Waynesville resident, has published a new book, Just One Won’t Hurt, about the demands of high school and peer pressure.

The story focuses on 15-year-old Kellie Jamison, the perfect daughter who found the transition from middle school to high school a greater undertaking than she’d anticipated. Already stressed, she falls prey to peer pressure and makes decisions that will affect the rest of her life.

Grahl graduated of UNC at Charlotte with a degree in business and is currently working on three other novels. She has already penned and published Is Having a Boyfriend Really Necessary?
