Product Details

Web ID: 16397719

The New York Times bestselling true story of an all-American girl and a boy from Zimbabwe and the letter that changed both of their lives forever. 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 letters and fifty 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 people, through their long-distance exchange. Their story will inspire you to look beyond your own life and wonder about the world at large and your place in it.

Wonderful Book!!

Do you enjoy reading books about true friendships, ones that start miles apart? Then this book is definitely for you. I Will Always Write Back is about a young American girl, Caitlin, and a Zimbabwean boy, Martin, who start communicating through letters. The memoir highlights the ups and downs in their lives and how they are drastically different from one side of the world to the other. But I love that the book shows how Caitlin and Martin can get through it together. With cursive writing and a whole lot of stamps, this book is a true beauty of how friendship can spark from just a few letters.
