Description

It started as a “pen pal” assignment. Everyone in Caitlin’s class wrote to an unknown student somewhere in a distant place. Caitlin chose Martin, a boy from Zimbabwe. This true story traces how 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.
