Finding Chika by Mitch Albom is a deeply moving and heartfelt memoir that beautifully captures themes of love, family, life after death, and resilience. Perfect for a summer read, this poignant story follows the journey of the author and his wife as they meet a spirited young girl named Chika, who grows up in a Haitian orphanage run by Albom.

When Chika is diagnosed with a rare and life-threatening illness, Mitch and his wife bring her into their home, embarking on a global quest to find a cure. Through their journey, Chika becomes much more than a child in need—she teaches them about the true meaning of family, hope, and the unbreakable bonds of love.

Filled with Albom’s signature blend of wisdom and compassion, Finding Chika is an inspiring tale, filled with many Swedenborgian themes, that reminds us to cherish the small, beautiful moments in life. It’s the perfect summer read for those seeking a story that touches the heart and lingers long after the last page.
