When her mother dies, Chika is admitted to the Have Faith Haiti Orphanage, which Albom operates in Port-au-Prince. The nearly fifty children who live, play, and go to school there have become family to Mitch and his wife, Janine, who have no children of their own. Chika's arrival makes a quick impression. Brave and self-assured, even as a toddler, she delights the other kids and teachers. Then, at age five, Chika is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, and a doctor tells Albom, "There is no one in Haiti who can help her." Mitch and Janine bring Chika to Detroit, hopeful that American medical care will soon grant her a healthy return to her homeland. Instead, Chika becomes a permanent part of the Alboms' lives, as they embark on a two-year, around-the-world journey to find a cure. As Chika's boundless optimism and humor teach Mitch and Janine the joys of caring for a child, they learn that a relationship built on love, no matter what blows it takes, can never be lost."--  |c Provided by publisher.
