Once Upon a Summer (#01 in Seasons Of The Heart Series)

3. 5 Stars \\r\\n\\r\\nThis Book was well written and easy to follow. It took me a bit to get into this book and it really started to pick up around a quarter of the way in. I would suggest that it is more of a 'teen' read, but not that bad for adults either. \\r\\n\\r\\nThe story follows a Lad (Joshua) and his unconventional family (the Jones': Grandpa, Uncle Charlie, Auntie Lou and Gramps). Once again Josh's world is being turned upside down, only now he is old enough to understand what is happening. Will Josh be able to trust God to work things out for his good or will he let hurt, bitterness and fear take root in his heart? Will he be able to stop the changes that are on the horizon? Will things be a bad and he believes them to be or will they turn out much greater then he could have ever thought?\\r\\n\\r\\nI'll leave you to discover these things out yourself. \\r\\n\\r\\nI recommend this book, worth a read a least once. \\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n
