Description
Finding Chika: A Heart-Breaking and Hopeful Story about Family, Adversity and Unconditional Love by Mitch Albom Chika Jeune's life was forever changed when she was brought to the orphanage run by Mitch Albom and his wife, Janine, after the devastating 2010 Haiti Earthquake. At just three years old, she had already lost her mother and was diagnosed with a terminal disease that no doctor in Haiti could treat. This heart-wrenching story follows Mitch's two-year journey around the world in search of a cure for Chika, a journey that taught him the joys of caring for a child and the power of a relationship built on love. Along the way, Chika's boundless optimism and humour brought hope and light to those around her. A beautifully written book, heart-breaking and uplifting in equal measure, Finding Chika is a powerful and emotional story that will stay with you long after you finish reading.
