Finding Chika at The Emirates Airline Festival of Literature – Dubai
Event No. 23
New York Times bestselling author Mitch Albom shares his extraordinary insights into life, and celebrates the orphan who forever changed his heart.
Chika Jeune was born three days before Haiti’s devastating earthquake in 2010. Aged three, she arrived at the Have Faith Haiti Orphanage that the Alboms operate. Diagnosed as terminally ill aged five, Chika became a permanent part of their lives as they embarked on a journey to find a cure.
Poignant and vulnerable, Finding Chika is the devastatingly beautiful portrait of what it means to be a family, regardless of how it is made.
