The Counting TreeBy Jennifer ArringtonDescription:
Heidi isn’t ready to start her prescribed life. So, she leaves her family, fiancé, and everything familiar to work at a youth camp in South Africa. But the culture of 1987 South Africa isn’t what she expected, and she finds herself struggling to adapt wondering if she’s made a colossal mistake. It doesn’t help that the camp’s engaging director, Johann, is antagonistic only towards her. Desperate for success, Heidi digs in and starts to make headway until heartbreaking news from home changes everything. Book Takeaway:Thankfulness triumphs over life's obstacles! Why the author wrote this book:Breast cancer sidelined me from my active life and left me depressed. So, I picked up this manuscript and spent my recovery days with my characters. Writing gave me purpose, and the completed book offers others joy! |
