About This Item
Warner Books, 2001. Very Good+. High-school student Josh Bell helps bring in some extra income for his stru ggling single mom by delivering hot meals to seniors, including the reclusi ve William Davis, who comes to trust Josh enough to hire him to put his mem oirs down on paper. The memoirs turn to life lessons as Davis gently tries to help Josh come to grips with being ignored by his father, dealing with t he uncertainties of the future, and nurturing his talent for writing. Davis relates stories about a nearly tragic hurricane on Mobile Bay in the 1910s , the time he and his best buddy hooked a record tarpon but decided to let it go free, and his trip to Ireland with his widowed mother. Davis is subtl y educating Josh through these simple homilies, trying to get him to unders tand that life is about taking time to experience every moment for the uniq ue gift it is. Reminiscent of Tuesdays with Morrie, this book should be jus tly popular with fans of that title.
