Twink (formerly Touching)

Back cover:
Twink
A tender, haunting novel about a brave and wonderful girl who taught others the meaning of begin human and the joy of being alive

Doctors told Twink's mother how hopeless her daughter's case was. Her family had been warned of the awesome responsibility they were all accepting. Her "preppie" step-brother Harry felt sick the first time he saw her.

But how could any of them give up on Twink or stop loving her - when she refused to give up [on] either them or herself...?

"John Neufeld's ability as an author seems to grow with each novel. This would seem almost impossible since from the first his books have been excellent." - Cleveland Press

"A novel so moving that the reader abandons all pretense of composure... brilliant!" - English Journal
