Shannon's Mirror

15 yr old Shannon and her best friend Tracey have always done everything together - seminary, orchestra, book club, gymnastics. Before entering their sophomore year in high school, they decide to try something new, a diet from a fashion magazine. As the pounds come off, the girls are greeted with compliments from everyone around them, including guys.

But after a perfect run through of the floor routine she has prepared for a Statewide Gymnastics Championship, Shannon collapses and is rushed to the hospital. The diagnosis of cardiac arrest brough on by anorexia nervosa shocks her family, friends and most of all Shannon herself.

Obsessed with the belief that anything less than perfection is failure, Shannon Jensen strives to run faster than she is able. Shannon's Mirror explores a young girl's heartbreaking struggle with anorexia, its insidious causes, and its drastic consequences.
