Seeing
Seeing
The extraordinary is all around us. After enduring a difficult year that began with his father unexpectedly walking out on the family, thirteen-year-old Jake Sheppard finds himself at a loss for hope. When his live-in grandfather shares a deeply personal and rather unbelievable bedtime story, the impossibility of the tale's events sparks an interest in Jake to determine its authenticity. Embarking on a personal journey for the truth leads Jake to a discovery that will not only change his life, but the way he sees the world, forever."This book is amazing. Mr. Falank's writing style shows the depth of the bond between Jake and his grandfather. Mr. Falank writes realistically. Even though this isn't the typical action/adventure book I usually go crazy over, the book really left an impression on me. I finished it in one day. The story, even though is one of loss, is also one of hope. It is motivating, in a way. The book is appropriate for all ages, but I think kids 12+ and adults will truly enjoy the message of the story. For anyone who says small publishers don't produce good books - check out Seeing. It will change your mind in many ways. I give Seeing 5 out of 5 bookworms!" - ERIK WEIBEL (thiskidreviewsbooks.com)
