Mom - Today I am recommending The Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain. After Carly's husband dies in the Vietnam War, she discovers she is pregnant, but that her baby has an inoperable heart defect and will probably die. Then, she finds out her brother-in-law is actually a time traveler from the future, and he can send her into the future where her baby can be operated on. There is so much that can go wrong, but if there is chance that Carly's baby can be saved, she has to take that chance. This is a really deeply moving book about what it means to be a parent and do what's best for your child even when it means making the ultimate sacrifice. It will grab you by the heartstrings and won't let go. Even long after you've read it, you still won't be able to get it out of your head.
And that's our view. Tune in tomorrow for Where-To-Go Wednesday.
