Book Brief

COLD HANDS, WARM HEART (YA Fic) by Jill Wolfson

In the beginning, one of the girls has a warm heart. The other has cold hands. And then a tragic accident happens. In the end, a grieving mother hugs a girl and feels her own daughter's heart beating deep inside the girl's chest. In the center of it all is the complex and moving story of an organ donor. And the many lives that are fraught with sadness, humor, fear, hope, anger, gratitude, guilt, and lots of questions when her death touches them. But mostly it's about the heart recipient. And how she finds a way to truly accept the gift she has been given.
