Rachel Scott and her killer Eric Harris both talked about starting a "chain reaction." Eric used violence to kill and destroy at Columbine High School. But Rachel chose another path. In a personal creed she wrote one month before her death in the Columbine tragedy, she explained her conviction that if one person goes out of his or her way to show compassion, it will start a world-changing chain reaction of kindness.For Rachel, this was a solemn calling. And now her father, Darrell Scott, is carrying on her crusade by challenging people of all ages to commit themselves to creating a revolution of compassion that can make a real difference in our troubled world. " Chain Reaction" spells out this challenge in compelling detail, providing moving examples of practical compassion and giving illustrations from Rachel's life and journals.

Reader reviewed by Jamie

Rachel Scott who was killed in a school shotting once said " I have a this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion, then it will start a chain reaction of the same." In the book Darrell Scott Rachel's dad writes his opinions on Rache's statements. When I was done reading this book I learned alot and I was a better person. I think everyone should read this book!
