NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Experience a young girl’s remarkable life in a moving, beautifully crafted narrative.
“This moving read will have you reaching for the tissues and smiling with delight.”—People

Diagnosed with thyroid cancer at age twelve, Esther (Persian for “Star”) Earl was an exceptionally bright and talented—but very normal—teenager. She lived a hope-filled and generous, outwardly focused life as she navigated her physical decline with grace. A cheerful, positive, and encouraging daughter, sister, and friend, Esther died in 2010, shortly after turning sixteen, but not before inspiring thousands through her growing online presence.
This unique memoir collects Esther’s journals, essays, letters, sketches, and photographs by family and friends to help tell Esther’s moving story along with an introduction by award-winning author John Green who dedicated his #1 bestselling novel The Fault in Our Stars to her.
