To Whom It May Concern

Autor Kim Orendor
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 aug 2023
Logan Fisher has figured out the rest of his life before he turns thirteen. Well, at least the rest of the summer after his upcoming birthday party. The Southern California boy plans to spend his days surfing and skateboarding and his nights playing video games featuring jet skis and skateboards. His plans-and his life-are turned upside down when he learns a family secret: He's adopted. When his parent's explanation doesn't quite add up in his mind, Logan does the only thing he can think of to find the truth. He runs away to uncover more secrets and discover his identity. Along his journey, Logan encounters individuals who provide him with clues and possible answers to his questions. In the end, he discovers that family is far more than genetics.

Notă biografică

Kim Orendor was adopted at two-and-a-half months old and grew up in Southern California, riding bicycles, skateboards, and motorcycles. She grew up knowing she was adopted. It was a very different story than some of her friends, who didn't find out until later in life that they were adopted, and it upended their worlds.She often wondered what her life would have been like if she had learned about her adoption from someone other than her parents. How would she react? How would she feel? That curiosity coupled with her love of storytelling led to the book you now hold in your hands.Before writing books-this is her second-Kim honed her writing craft as a sports reporter. She's clocked more than twenty years of experience between The Sacramento Bee and The Davis Enterprise. At The Enterprise, she won state and national writing awards and was the sports editor in charge of multiple state and national award-winning sections.Kim's career path took a dramatic turn in 2006 when she began a five-year teaching stint at Sias International University in China's Henan Province. The administration took advantage of her experience, and she taught newspaper and reading classes. She was later thrilled to get to teach American Culture Through Film, where she learned the universal secrets behind storytelling. This led to her first book, a memoir Unbound Feet: Finding Freedom in Communist China, also with W. Brand Publishing.Kim returned to the Sacramento area in 2018 to be a caretaker for her parents. Her dad, a Navy veteran, was diagnosed with a rare neurological disease. Sadly, he passed in 2022, but not before Kim was able to finish this novel and read it aloud to him and her mom. Kim continues to live in Northern California with her mom.
