Produktbeschreibung

Fourteen-year-old Jessica Maxwell lives alone with her alcoholic mother after her baby sister, older brother and father died years ago. John Garrett is the lone survivor of a horrific car accident that claimed the lives of his wife and toddler daughter months ago. John is Jessica's ninth grade teacher and one day, early in the school year, noticing her declining grades, he reaches out as a mentor. After initially declining she eventually accepts, and soon finds his house is the only place she finds security and peace. After several months, John calls social service, concerned over Jessie's mother's obvious neglect. Jessica's home situation improves, but then the unthinkable happens and John pursues custody of Jessie. But will he get it? This is a powerful and moving story of living with grief and neglect, of survival, of acceptance, of the power of friendship and love between two very different people.

Autorenporträt

Kathi Kotchi grew up in Havertown, Pennsylvania. After high graduation, she went to nursing school in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, graduating in 1985. During that time, she thought of the concept for To The Moon And Back. Life progressed with working various jobs, meeting and marrying her husband, giving birth to three children and raising them. She tried to get it published in 2000 but was rejected by 26 agents. Moon never left her mind, and she would add to it over the years, with the dream of becoming a published author ever present. Kathi is the poster person for never giving up on your dreams! She works at a hospital in New Jersey, in a busy maternity unit, caring for postpartum mothers and their babies. She lives in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, with her husband, daughter, and best furry friend, her dog Ollie.
