The Probability of Miracles by Wendy Wunder
For Cam, growing up in Disney World has been less than magical. An unsuccessful battle with cancer has left her ready to die, but Cam's journey is not over yet. When she and her family travel to a small town known for its mystical healing powers, Cam learns to open her mind to new possibilities and live the life she never imagined.
Do you believe in miracles? Do they exist only in small places or happen only to certain people? Cam's heart-wrenching story just might change your answers to these questions. Read this in a quiet place with a box of tissues. Fans of Gayle Forman's If I Stay, this one is for you.

We're reading now...
Wonder by R.J. Palacio
Have you ever felt like you don't fit in? Maybe you wear the 'wrong' clothes or like the 'wrong' music or eat the 'wrong' foods. For August it's not that simple. He was born with extreme facial abnormalities that no surgery or make-up can hide. When you see him you will gasp, but will you take the time to get to know the boy beneath the mask?
This is one of the most inspiring and eye-opening stories that you will ever read! Reserve your copy today.
