Nobody does, not even her doctors. All she wants is to return to her happy and athletic teenage self. But her accumulating symptoms--chronic fatigue, pounding headaches, weight gain--hint that there's something not right inside Claire's body. Claire's high school experience becomes filled with MRIs, visits to the Mayo Clinic, and multiple surgeries to remove a brain tumor. But even in her most difficult moments battling chronic illness, Claire manages to find solace in her family, her closest friends, and her art. A deeply personal and visually arresting memoir that draws on the author's high school diaries and drawings, One in a Million is also a sophisticated portrayal of pain, depression, and fear that any teen or adult can relate to. With a sensitive preface and an author's note connecting past to present, this true story of resilience strikes a moving balance between raw honesty in the face of medical and mental trauma and the everyday musings of a teenager."-- $c Provided by publisher. 521 1 $a 14 years and up. 521 2 $a Grades 9-12. 710 2 $a Candlewick Press, $e publisher. 941 $a 5 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611020140.0 952 $l NEPC953 $d 20240513113603.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240417024410.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011721.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20231102010620.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=20DA20B8794511EEAB8C8A0C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
