Never That Far

















The death of Libby's grandfather has hit particularly hard.  He was her best friend.  For her dad, it's devastating.  He calls his family "the death family" because so many have died now - both his parents, his three brothers, his wife.

But the night of the funeral Libby's grandfather comes to visit her and tells her to go to the lake and find a treasure he left.  Now it's up to Libby to not only find this treasure - whatever it is - but to help her father regain his faith.

I thought this was a lovely book of hope and restoration.  I am sure some will find it too "religious" or "spiritual" but I thought it was hopeful.  I do wish there had been more about the family history and the book.
