520 1 _aSet in the late 1950s in Beaufort, North Carolina, A Walk to Remember follows Landon Carter, a 17-year-old high school senior known for his rebellious nature and carefree attitude. When he’s forced to join the school play as punishment, he unexpectedly finds himself paired with Jamie Sullivan, the quiet, deeply religious daughter of the town’s Baptist minister. Jamie is everything Landon is not—humble, kind, and sincere. Though Landon initially feels embarrassed by her, he begins to see Jamie in a new light as they spend more time together. Against the odds, Landon falls deeply in love with her. However, their young love is tested when Jamie reveals a heartbreaking secret: she is suffering from leukemia. She has stopped responding to treatment and has only a short time to live. Determined to make the most of their time, Landon fulfills Jamie’s dream of getting married in the church where her parents were wed. Their love story, though short-lived, transforms Landon forever. He grows into a compassionate, mature man, forever shaped by the girl who taught him the meaning of love, faith, and sacrifice.
