Non-Fiction Memoir
One courageous girl used her final wish to
fulfill the wishes of 155 other children. When Hope
Stout was diagnosed with bone cancer, the Stouts prayed for
a miracle. The miracle occurred, but not in the way the
Stouts expected. Instead this young girl asked for what
seemed to be impossible-that one million dollars be raised
in a month to fund the wishes of all the children on the
Make-A-Wish Foundation's list for Central and Western North
Carolina. Shelby and Stuart Stout felt led to write
A Legacy of Hope after compiling a journal of the
191 days from Hope's diagnosis to her death. Both parents
were with Hope every step of the way on her journey from a
healthy preteen to being dependent on crutches to eventually
being bedridden. Their heartfelt story includes the times
when they were angry and desperate, as well as the times
when Hope's humor and spirit shone through. Academy
Award winner David S. Ward will direct the feature film,
Hope's Wish. Filming is scheduled to begin in
mid-January of 2008.
