Dear Edward by Ann Napolitano

I just recently finished a book Dear Edward that was kind of fascinating. It was about a young boy, 10 maybe, who was on a plane with his parents, brother, and 100 strangers that crashed and he was the sole survivor of the crash. It focuses on what lead up to the crash and what happens to him after. What really was interesting to me was, this actually happened, well sort of. In 2010 in Africa there was a Dutch boy who was the lone survivor of a plane crash too. The author became obsessed with the story, but not much else was ever known about the boy except for that he was taken in by his childless aunt and uncle, so she wrote a story to fill in the gaps for her own mind. This book will leave you thinking how you would handle things and wanting to know oh so much more about that boy!
