Marna: A Hidden Treasure Left Behind on Lake Erie’s Shore

MARNA is based on a true story and is an inspirational story for those children who have lost a parent. A seven-year old girl lost her father suddenly and tragically from the now withdrawn prescription drug, Vioxx when she was just five months old. She loves to write short stories, songs and poems about her father and she feels him watching over her from heaven. Her mother eventually remarries and she has a new sister now and her family loves to take summer vacations on the Lake Erie Islands. During one of those summer getaways, she finds Marna and realizes through her time spent trying to catch Marna, that they share something strikingly similar, they both lost a parent when they were just babies, but both of them embrace the people around them who share their time, their talents and their treasures and so they are both taken care of and loved. This story sends a beautiful message of hope for those children who are grieving the loss of a parent or for those children who feel abandoned or alone. And it’s a story about triumph after tragedy. Meet Marna in this beautifully written and illustrated true story about loss and love. Ages 8-12.
