Loving Natalee

"Hope is the only thing, that keeps me holding on." Beth Holloway's Loving Natalee mesmerized me with her strength.

First of all, Beth Holloway is the mother of Natalee Holloway. Natalee has been missing from Aruba since May 2005. Natalee was on her senior trip, along with several other classmates. She never showed up at the airport, for her flight home.

Natalee grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. She was an honors student, on the dance team, and was involved in several extracurricular activities. She planned to use her scholarship to attend the University of Alabama and become a Pediatrician.

Next, Beth has been such an inspiration to me. Her faith has shown me that the power of faith can give us hope against all odds. Beth never gave up looking for her daughter.

I personally connected with Loving Natalee. Beth has been my mother's best friend since kindergarten. My mother and I have visited Beth at her house in Birmingham during her search for her daughter. Beth is a very strong and inspiring lady.

Lastly, A good theme for Loving Natalee is live each day to the fullest; you never know when it might be your last. Always be nice to everyone and treat others with respect. Both Beth and Natalee, never dreamed it would be the last time they would see each other before she left for Aruba.

To this day, everyone is still searching for any clues of Natalee. Beth travels to schools spreading the words of teens and their safety. She has made a lifetime movie and has written the book Loving Natalee. I enjoyed this book very much. I would recommend this book to every teenage student. Every teen needs to be educated about situations that have happened to prevent bad situations happening to them.
