A Wish for Giants - Tapa blanda

Little Roxie Madison is a 9 year old diagnosed with a life threatening medical condition. When her doctor asks her what she would wish for if she could go anywhere, meet anyone or have any material object, he can't believe her response. She wishes to do something no one else has ever done before, a feat even science itself has yet to achieve--Roxie wants to find Bigfoot! Sophie Bracone is a 24 year old graduate student, devoted to child advocacy and determined to change the world in favor of the next generation. Her cute, girly appearance is a deceptive shell; harboring a relentless spirit with political ambitions to leave no child without hope. She's already taken on the state government to stiffen consequences for perpetrators of child abuse. Sophie comes on board as a wish volunteer and gladly accepts the challenge. Derrick Boehm is a classmate of Sophie's, born into wealth and privilege. When he hears of her quest he devises an elaborate hoax to gain fame and win Sophie's love, caring little for Roxie's wish. With unlimited funds and access to government resources, Derrick manages to convince Sophie he's there to help her achieve an otherwise impossible feat. Will Sophie realize Derrick's deception and uncover his sinister plan before it's too late? Or will she defy monumental odds.......and find Bigfoot?

Aaron Dunbar graduated from Clarion University with degrees in Psychology and English writing as well as a Master's degree in secondary education from the University of Pittsburgh. After writing several novels, he wrote this story dedicated to the folks who care so deeply for children with life threatening medical conditions. "While it's primarily fiction, 'A Wish for Giants' gave me a chance to tell a story of courage, determination and the power of faith against a seemingly impossible challenge. I was able to incorporate this tale of valor with another subject that has fascinated me since I was very young--Bigfoot. I've included some of the knowledge gained on the subject over the years to bring to life an account that will make readers wonder if it didn't really happen."
