Picouldt, J. (2004). My sister's keeper. New York,NY : Atria Books.A thought provoking story of 13-year-old Anna.
Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate, her older sister. Since she was born, Anna has undergone through countless surgeries and transfusions to keep Kate alive. She has never questioned about her life and her role in her family as her sister's keeper until she makes a decision that will tear her family apart and most likely lose her beloved sister. She sues her parents to get medical emancipation when she is expected to donate a kidney to Kate.
A very engaging story with a suprise ending.
