Life works best when we have a sense of meaning; and above all, we seek to mean something to other people. Here, two people enjoy a heartfelt conversation about the role of looks and money, and the deeper qualities people value in themselves and others — and then they explore what we can do to be "more."

About the Book

Sometimes people get so distracted by our appearance that they fail to look any deeper and find out who we are as individuals. As the main character, Model, says: “People love me for my looks...but I wish there were more… to me.”What if we look into our internal mirrors and are not satisfied with what we see? Philosophy can be uncomfortable. Talking about moral principles or ideals challenges us to look frankly at our weak areas with honesty and courage. The characters encourage us and accompany us as we, too, strive to grow, each in our own way.
