I have never been big on subtitles, but decided this book could use one, to convey that while the title and cover are similar to Columbine, Parkland has a very different focus. (Different time, different situation, different goal.)
I loved the simplicity of the cover, though, so I pitched an idea to my publisher: an inside subtitle, which will appear on the title page inside, and on book sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, but not on the cover. They loved it.
So it is now Parkland: Birth of a Movement.
And it's also available for pre-order, BTW. It's at all the major sites, and I've got direct links at my Parkland page.
Here's what it looks like on Amazon:
Thank you for sharing this insightful look at the Parkland movement! It really highlights how important youth activism is today. I remember playing Geometry Dash during stressful times, and it was a much-needed escape. Similar to the movement, sometimes we find strength in unexpected places!
The new subtitle Parkland: Birth of a Movement signals a clear shift in focus, emphasizing how a specific moment sparked lasting civic action, and that sense of forward momentum mirrors Geometry Dash Lite a rhythm-based platform game where progress depends on timing, persistence, and moving steadily through challenges.
