520    "Chika Jeune was born three days before the devastating 
       earthquake that decimated Haiti in 2010. She spent her 
       infancy in a landscape of extreme poverty, and when her 
       mother died giving birth to a baby brother, Chika was 
       brought to The Have Faith Haiti Orphanage that Albom 
       operates in Port Au Prince. With no children of their own,
       the forty-plus children who live, play, and go to school 
       at the orphanage have become family to Mitch and his wife,
       Janine. Chika's arrival makes a quick impression. Brave 
       and self-assured, even as a three-year-old, she delights 
       the other kids and teachers. But at age five, Chika is 
       suddenly diagnosed with something a doctor there says, "No
       one in Haiti can help you." Mitch and Janine bring Chika 
       to Detroit, hopeful that American medical care can soon 
       return her to her homeland. Instead, Chika becomes a 
       permanent part of their household, and their 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 the joys of caring for a child, he learns that a 
       relationship built on love, no matter what blows it takes,
       can never be lost."--|cPublisher's description.
