Jen White' s A Thousand Minutes to Sunlight is a sensitively-written middle grade novel about a girl struggling with anxiety, family secrets, and the meaning of friendship. Cora is constantly counting the minutes. It' s the only thing that stops her brain from rattling with worry, from convincing her that danger is up ahead. Afraid of the unknown, Cora spends her days with her feet tucked into sand, marveling at La Quinta beach' s giant waves and her little sister Sunshine' s boundless energy. And then danger really does show up at Cora' s doorstep--her absentee uncle, whose sudden presence in the middle of the night makes her parents nervous and secretive. As dawn breaks once more, Cora must piece together her family and herself, one minute at a time. A Thousand Minutes to Sunlight is an endearing and revelatory middle-grade novel that is perfect for fans of Counting by 7s and Fish in a Tree.
Jen White is the author of Survival Strategies of the Almost Brave. She holds an M. F. A. in writing for children and young adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts. She lives in San Clemente, California, with her family.
