Siempre Contestaré Tus Cartas:Cómo Una Carta Cambió Dos Vidas

La historia verídica de una niña norteamericana de 12 años y un niño de Zimbabwe. a los que una carta les cambió sus vidas para siempre. Comenzó como una tarea escolar. Todos en la clase de Caitlin escribieron a un estudiante desconocido en algún lugar lejano. Martín tuvo suerte de recibir una carta del proyecto de un amigo por correspondencia. Llegaron sólo 10 cartas y había 50 niños en la clase. Pero él era el estudiante más avanzado del grupo, de modo que se le entregó la primera carta. Esta carta fue el comienzo de una correspondencia que se extendió a lo largo de 6 años y cambió sus vidas. En esta acaparante memoria doble, Caitlin y Martín cuentan cómo se convirtieron en mejores amigos - y en mejores personas - gracias a sus intercambios epistolares a gran distancia. Es un relato inspirador que ofrece una visión más allá de la vida propia hacia la maravilla que es el mundo y el lugar que cada persona ocupa en él.

I Will Always Write Back: How One Letter Changed Two Lives

The true story of an all-American girl and a boy from an impoverished city in Zimbabwe and the letter that changed both of their lives forever. It started as an assignment. Everyone in Caitlin's class wrote to an unknown student somewhere in a distant place. All the other kids picked countries like France or Germany, but when Caitlin saw Zimbabwe writer on the board, it sounded like the most exotic place she had ever heard of--so she chose it. Martin was lucky to even receive a pen pal letter. There were only ten letters, and forty kids in his class. But he was the top student, so he got the first one. That letter was the beginning of a correspondence that spanned six years and changed two lives. In this compelling dual memoir, Caitlin and Martin recount how they became best friends --and better people--through letters. Their story will inspire readers to look beyond their own lives and wonder about the world at large and their place in it.

The Kids are All Right

Perfect is boring. Well, 1983 certainly wasn't boring for the Welch family. Somehow, between their handsome father's mysterious death, their glamorous soap-opera-star mother's cancer diagnosis, and a phalanx of lawyers intent on bankruptcy proceedings, the four Welch siblings managed to handle each new heartbreaking misfortune in the same way they dealt with the unexpected arrival of the forgotten-about Chilean exchange student together. All that changed with the death of their mother. While nineteen-year-old Amanda was legally on her own, the three younger siblings Liz, sixteen; Dan, fourteen; and Diana, eight were each dispatched to a different set of family friends. Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, Amanda headed for college in New York City and immersed herself in an '80s world of alternative music and drugs. Liz, living with the couple for whom she babysat, followed in Amanda's footsteps until high school graduation when she took a job in Norway as a nanny. Mischievous, rebellious Dan, bounced from guardian to boarding school and back again, getting deeper into trouble and drugs. And Diana, the red-haired baby of the family, was given a new life and identity and told to forget her past. But Diana's siblings refused to forget her or let her go. Told in the alternating voices of the four siblings, their poignant, harrowing story of unbreakable bonds unfolds with ferocious emotion. Despite the Welch children's wrenching loss and subsequent separation, they retained the resilience and humor that both their mother and father endowed them with growing up as lost souls, taking disastrous turns along the way, but eventually coming out right side up. The kids are not only all right; they're back together. From the Hardcover edition.
