It started as an assignment. Everyone in Caitlin's class wrote to
an unknown student somewhere in a distant place. Martin was lucky
to even receive a pen-pal letter. There were only ten, and forty
kids in his class. But he was the top student, so he got the first
one. That letter was the beginning of a correspondence that spanned
six years and changed two lives. In this compelling dual memoir,
Caitlin and Martin recount how they became best friends--and better
