Things break all the time.
Day breaks, waves break, voices break.
Promises break.
Hearts break.
Every expectant parent will tell you that they don't want a
perfect baby, just a healthy one. Charlotte and Sean O'Keefe would
have asked for a healthy baby, too, if they'd been given the
choice. Instead, their lives are made up of sleepless nights,
mounting bills, the pitying stares of "luckier" parents, and maybe
worst of all, the what-ifs. What if their child had been born
healthy? But it's all worth it because Willow is, well, funny as it
seems, perfect. She's smart as a whip, on her way to being as
pretty as her mother, kind, brave, and for a five-year-old an
unexpectedly deep source of wisdom. Willow is Willow, in sickness
and in health.
Everything changes, though, after a series of events forces
Charlotte and her husband to confront the most serious what-ifs of
all. What if Charlotte should have known earlier of Willow's
illness? What if things could have been different? What if their
beloved Willow had never been born? To do Willow justice, Charlotte
must ask herself these questions and one more. What constitutes a
valuable life?
Emotionally riveting and profoundly moving, "Handle with Care"
brings us into the heart of a family bound by an incredible burden,
a desperate will to keep their ties from breaking, and, ultimately,
a powerful capacity for love. Written with the grace and wisdom
she's become famous for, beloved #1 "New York Times" bestselling
author Jodi Picoult offers us an unforgettable novel about the
fragility of life and the lengths we will go to protect it.
