This Star Won't Go Out: The Life and Words of Esther Grace Earl by Lori Earl, Wayne Earl, Esther Earl

4.0

Esther Grace Earl was a bit of an internet celebrity and a superhero. While Esther had various challenges with her health, which would ultimately kill her, her commitment to ending world suck left a lasting impact. Esther's parents compiled letters, internet chat logs, diary entries, and artwork to portray the life of Esther Grace. This novel reminds me of Anne Frank's diary, not because both girls were impacted by mass genocide, but because both girls were able to positively impact the world despite the crap life dishes out. I believe that this is one the best inspirational works published this year. It has encouraged me to interact with life in a new way. *10 o'clock dance party*
