Book
The distance between me and the cherry tree / Paola Peretti ; translated by Denise Muir ; illustrated by Carolina Rabei.
"When nine-year-old Mafalda learns she will go blind in six months from Stargardt Disease, she needs the help of family and friends to retain what is essential to her"-- Provided by Publisher.
"There are a lot of things ten-year-old Mafalda cares a lot about. Like counting the stars in the night sky, playing soccer, and climbing the cherry tree outside her school. Mafalda keeps a list of all these things, because soon she won't be able to do them anymore...because she's going blind. Even with her bad eyesight, Mafalda can see that people are already treating her differently - and that's the last things she wants. So she hides the fact that her vision is disappearing faster than anyone predicted, and she makes a plan: When the time is right, she'll go live in the cherry tree, just like her favorite book character. But as Mafalda loses her sight, surprising things come into focus. And with the help of family and friends both old and new, Mafalda will find her way through the darkness, literally and figuratively"-- From dust jacket.
