SELPONT Girl Disrupted: How One Kid's Travels Around the World Made It a Little Better - 7756

When Claire Thomsen was just eleven her parents announced they were taking her out of school, away from friends and familiar faces….disrupting her comfortable life in Malibu…to ramble around the world for a year. Girl Disrupted is the remarkable tale of a child on the edge of adolescence who is propelled into realms beyond the imaginings of any age. Her family breaks her loose from the commonplace as they circle the globe together, covering over 20 countries. As she sifts through each country, Claire turns over the rocks of wonder and shares the gems poignant and often hilarious, of the misadventures of an innocent abroad. But one soaring landscape touches her as no other place…Bhutan, and it is there she meets everlasting friends, and crafts a mission that will make a difference half way across the world, and lift her to a new, meaningful plateau. She learns that the key to happiness is helping others, and her desire to give back leads to an extraordinary project that truly does make a difference. Girl Disrupted will make you believe in the power of one young person’s ability to inspire and really make the world a better place.
