Jewel by Brett Lott
I was not so keen on Lott’s other book, “A Song I Knew By
Heart,” but “Jewel” was truly a masterpiece. With great skill, perception, and
gentleness, Lott weaves a beautiful story of a mother and her special-needs
child. Somehow, he creates this story with such a sense of authenticity, writing
such a deep, personal saga, that the reader walks with this mother, with this
family, in grappling with the mystery of how this gift of a special-needs child
changes, challenges, and transforms every part of their lives. This book helps
those of us who have not experienced this gift to gain a small glimpse into the
hearts of those who have. Masterful.
