Now, my mom is a huge fan of Frank Deford. He's a great sports writer and he wrote a book that touched me and my mom's heart! In fact, she liked this book so much, she named me after Frank Deford's daughter.

This little girl, Alex, short for Alexandra, has a brother, Chris (short for Christian) saw her die in her bed, she was always a smart girl, she pronounced his name as "Tris" because that was how it was spelled. Her classmates made all these pictures for Alex when she died. The school raised the flag half up in her honor when she died. It brought tears to my eyes about how much people cared.
Now, I can't explain everything that I felt or read in this book, you'll have to read it yourself. Happy reading!
