Well folks, I'm crazy by the stories of Nicholas, unfortunately I have no books most of it, I've read many reviews on all his books, he got on Twitter and he is very friendly with todos.Seus books have touched the world, and many people who do not bet much on his talent, after reading a book the author was amazed with his works. If you do not know much about Nicholas, read the author profile. With 16 books and 50 million copies worldwide, Nicholas Sparks is a resounding success. Most of his books debut and remains for an average of five months on bestseller lists in America. In 2004 three of his books appeared at the same time, the list of the New York Times. family Sparks lives currently in New Bern, North Carolina, with his wife and five children. Catherine was love at first sight. He met her on holiday college and the next day said that they were destined to marry. And 150 letters a year later, his prediction proved correct and the two are together today. But the trajectory of romantic Nicholas was not only happy endings. Six weeks after his marriage to Catherine, the mother of Sparks had an accident riding a horse and died, aged 47. His father died seven years later, at 54, in a car accident and in 2000, the author lost his younger sister, 33, of cancer. In 1996, a son of Sparks, Ryan, was diagnosed with autism. A diagnosis which later turned out to be wrong, but that was enough to trigger a year full of worries. Nicholas spent three to four hours daily with her son in intensive care, trying to help him develop speech. Finally, the correct diagnosis of Central Auditory Processing Disorder, brought hope to the family and in 1999, Ryan joined the school in a regular classroom. The experience with her son deeply marked his writing, especially the book The Rescue. athletic trainer A lesser known facet of the author is his passion for athletics. During high school, Nicholas broke records in their school as a runner, which earned him an athletic scholarship to attend the University of Notre Dame. Later, when one of his children began to be interested in the sport, decided to donate nearly one million dollars to recover the racetrack the local public school. Shortly after, Sparks, himself an experienced athlete, volunteered to be coach of the team, consisting mainly of low-income youth. The writer was deeply involved with students, many of them about to attend your home, even on Christmas dinners. With the program of Sparks, the team quickly became one of the best in the country. For him, the important thing is to give athletes the opportunity to study at universities through the provision of scholarships: "Most of these children are the first in their families to go to university." Founder of Epiphany School In 2005, Nicholas and his wife decided to sponsor a family from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. At the invitation of Sparks, the family moved to New Bern, where he and his wife would have better conditions to help them. At this time the Sparks began to pay greater attention to the provision of schools in the city, considering their ideas and values \u200b\u200babout education. So in 2006 the couple joined Tom McLaughlin to found The Epiphany School. In meetings with the community, there has been a consensus that the school should be a place where students of all religions have a completely comprehensive education in a traditional Judeo-Christian environment and rigorous. Currently with 300 students, The Epiphany School's mission is to encourage students to pursue an apprenticeship for life, leadership, courageous, loyal and compassionate service discipleship. Directed toward the development of the mind, body and spirit of students, the school aims to assist them in discovering and expanding their own gifts. |
