Looking for a fun way to enjoy books and meet new people? Join us in the Better Than Therapy Book Club which meets on the last Wednesday of every month at 2 p.m. in our Boardroom.
Join us as we discuss Ann Napolitano’s Dear Edward. One summer morning, twelve-year-old Edward Adler, his beloved older brother, his parents, and 183 other passengers board a flight headed for Los Angeles. Halfway across the country, the plane crashes. Edward is the sole survivor. Edward’s story captures the attention of the nation, but he struggles to find a place in a world without his family. He continues to feel that a part of himself has been left in the sky, forever tied to the plane and all of his fellow passengers. But then he makes an unexpected discovery—one that will lead him to the answers of some of life’s most profound questions: When you’ve lost everything, how do you find the strength to put one foot in front if the other?
