Sunrise Sunset

By Kathleen Marie Marsh and Heather Sprangers

Written by an English teacher and her former student, this novel explores the unlikely friendship that develops between Ellie, a soon-to-be-retired educator, and Janelle, a young woman who has finally become pregnant after years of infertility, as each is faced with a personal struggle. While Ellie handles her mother’s Alzheimer’s, Janelle cannot seem to make her life anything but chaotic.
