Northshire Bookstore Presents Author Gina Peca

By Staff Report | Education

SARATOGA SPRINGS – Northshire Bookstore Saratoga will host a reading, signing and discussion with Gina Peca, author of “I Wouldn’t Change a Thing” on Friday, September 13 at 7 p.m. 

 

All proceeds from the sale of Peca’s book will benefit the Catie Hoch Foundation, which is dedicated to helping children while they are in treatment for cancer.

When Gina Peca’s daughter Catie was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 6, her mother couldn’t imagine feeling joy, happiness or peace again. But Catie managed to turn her cancer diagnosis into an unexpected adventure, with her mother along for the ride.  

Catie‘s cancer never got in her way. Catie knew exactly who she was and what she wanted. 

When asked what she would change about her life, she replied, “I wouldn’t change a thing. Not even having cancer because of what I’ve learned, the places I’ve gone and the friends I’ve made.”

“I Wouldn’t Change a Thing” is Catie’s story—the story of how she changed the world, one brilliant moment at a time.  

Northshire Bookstore is located at 424 Broadway.
