About this item
Remember the true meaning of the holidays with three touching novellas from best-selling author Lurlene McDaniel.In the opening novella, "Christmas Child," 15-year-old Melanie is just getting used to the idea of having a sister when she learns that the child will only live for a few hours. But Melanie learns much about love during her sister's brief but poignant life. In "The Last Dance," Brenda is faced with the difficult choice between good intentions and what she really wants when she becomes the last chance for happiness for a dying boy. In "Kathy's Life," two 16-years-olds seem to have everything on the surface, but not everything is as perfect as it appears.
About the Author
I was born in Philadelphia PA, grew up (mostly) in Hialeah FL, graduated from the University of South Florida, Tampa FL (go Bulls!) and currently live in Chattanooga TN---I'm an American citizen by birth, and Southern by the grace of God.I have a brother, three years younger, married, and mathematically gifted. I am totally without math skills. The books I write, the topics and subject matter, grew out of my firstborn son's diagnosis of diabetes at age 3. Infinite reward that comes to me from my work.... when a grown reader lets me know that reading my books inspired her to seek a profession that helps others. I have wonderful letters saying, "Today I graduated from nursing/medical school."Now that's a gift of joy!Official Lurlene McDaniel Websitehttp://www.lurlenemcdaniel.com
