Synopsis
Bestselling author Jodi Picoult crafts another dramatic tale of a family torn apart by a child's illness. Willow was born with a rare disease, and when her parents try to sue for a "wrongful birth" in order to get financial help with Willow's care, they are forced to say whether or not they would have terminated the pregnancy had they known of Willow's illness. Picoult's novels are always rife with controversial lawsuits and medical mysteries, and fans of MY SISTER'S KEEPER will likely enjoy HANDLE WITH CARE.

Industry Reviews
"In her customary fashion, Picoult probes these sensitive issues with empathy and compassion."
(02/15/2009)
"[HANDLE WITH CARE is] well written, it's conscientiously researched and, most important, it presents a character who is a child instead of a disability personified....Picoult does a terrific job of evoking OI and its peculiarities."
(03/03/2009)
"HANDLE WITH CARE is...a fairly engaging...read. And there are moments when [Picoult's] imagery or insight catches the breath."
