21. Summer of Light by W Dale Cramer
Mick Brannigan is happy with his life as a construction worker, husband and father of three. It's true that his youngest, four-year-old Dylan, is suffering from a condition making it difficult for him to process his sensory perceptions causing behaviorial problems. Fate seems to take a hand in Mick's life when he loses his job and becomes the primary caretaker for Dylan and the other two children. He takes on odd jobs around the neighborhood, cutting down a tree which falls into a house, destroying it and the chainsaw borrowed from another neighbor. He has a freak accident and drives his car into a pond. One things leads to another; but through it all he helps Dylan learn to deal with his condition, finds another vocation and develops faith in a God who does know what is happening in our lives. The religious message is not heavy handed at all. I truly enjoyed the humor in this story and how Mick deals with his frustrations and the growth in his life. Rating: 5
