Huntington
freshman releases first novel
 Huntington University
freshman Megan House has released her first novel, “Passage to
Freedom.” The 192-page book, aimed at inspiring young adults, tells a
story of a Jewish girl and her family escaping from Amsterdam to
England during World War II. The story illustrates how the main
character, Anya Kaskie, strives to find freedom from the Nazis’
rule, but also how she finds freedom within herself as she grows and
develops into a young woman.
After writing the
novel at age 15, House put it on the backburner until her senior
year of high school when she decided to give publishing a shot.
