Hannah and Molly

Tackling the tough subject of a childhood incident of stomach cancer, Hannah and Molly, new children's author Jeanne Schiller Brenz crafts a smart and tender book for young readers. Therapeutic, as well as entertaining, this is more than a story about a little girl named Hannah who is facing the fight of her life, it is also about her dog, Molly, who proves without a doubt to be the very best four-legged friend. Beautifully illustrated by Elizabeth Sullivan, this debut helps boys and girls who are facing hard-hitting issues of their own and serves as a powerful tool for families to begin meaningful dialogue about illness and how one is able to depend on inner strength to endure most any trial. Loosely based on the author's life, this poignant tale is an ode to tenacity, perseverance, and camaraderie-some of the most important features and joys of life.
