Non-Fiction Memoir
At 49, cartoonist Marian Henley hasn't committed to marrying
the man with whom she has been dating for seven years. But
as the Big 5-0 looms, she realizes that above all else she
wants a child. Her story follows the heartbreaking ups and
downs of going through the international adoption process;
deciding when it's time to grow up and maybe even get
married; and in the end, it's the story of a daughter's
relationship with her father, and how becoming a mother
finally led her to understand him. THE SHINIEST JEWEL is a touching narrative, accompanied by
Marian's winsome drawings, that beautifully weaves together
her realizations about the joy, and sometimes heartbreak, of
building a family.
