Description
When her dad undergoes emergency open-heart surgery after collapsing at his gym, it's pretty much the worst thing that's ever happened to 11-year-old only child Hannah Brody. In response, she turns to a long-unopened diary that becomes the outlet for her deepest fears and darkest secrets. To her surprise, she finds that not only is she not alone, but that support can come from the most unexpected places. Funny, richly textured, and moving, Dear Franklin is a story of resilience in the face of near tragedy, an inspiring tale for middle-graders and others on how to cope when confronted with life's unexpected twists and turns.

Person
Jake Ryan is in topflight physical condition. Seriously, dude is ripped. Especially considering he "recently" had massive open-heart surgery. He resides all over the world (when online), but sleeps most nights in New York City, where he has a thriving life coaching business and two amazing teenage kids whom he loves with all the might of his bionic heart. He can be found crushing it on TikTok as @FreeJakeRyan, creating content that enlightens, inspires, and entertains a billion people a day, potentially. While this is his debut novel, he also writes a popular daily newsletter, The Fire Wave Manifesto. Though to be fair, he claims merely to edit it, as the writing is done via direct downloads from the Universe.
