Malaikah, a Victor Scott student, was compelled to write the book after becoming upset over the shootings, especially the shooting death of a school mates father.
The book looks at the shootings that have plagued Bermuda recently through the insightful eyes of a child, with the opening line being “Please stop the shooting, it can spread everywhere”. Not only did Malaikah author the book all by herself, she also did all the illustrations for the book.
