{"product_id":"9781477219744","title":"Living Out A Dream","description":"This story opens with a thirteen-year-old boy whose name is “Appy.” Throughout his life he develops a strong and special relationship with a priest and nun at St. Matthew orphanage where he was raised since birth. Even though he was a disadvantaged child, Appy made his life worthwhile through the choices he made both early on and in adulthood. He astounds the reader as he grows-up to be an intelligent, considerate, and loving man. The reader will find the story both sad and beautiful. It touches on religion only to the extent that it takes place in a Catholic orphanage where children are raised by priests and nuns until adopted out or reach the age of eighteen. This read takes many twists and turns. Most especially a love story between two unselfish people who set out to make a difference in the lives  of children, family, and friends. Unfortunately, a  tragic event happens that will change everyone’s  life. Its main characters weave a sweet and simple encounter with children in different stages of their development from babies and toddlers to teens. It also displays a modernistic touch, wherein, much of the story is communicated through the new digital wave (e-mail).","brand":"AuthorHouse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47141734449392,"sku":"9781477219744","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781477219744_p0.jpg?v=1763763949","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781477219744","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
