Description: "Poverty was the only life 15-year-old Fania knew with her family in Port-au-Prince but she was happy and her days were peaceful. All that changed one January afternoon in 2010 when a devastating earthquake struck, toppling her world and propelling her on a six year odyssey from an oppressive orphanage to life as a single mother in a desperate slum. Will the aftershocks ever end?"--Back cover
