Publisher's Synopsis
In this inspirational collection, author Michael Larson weaves incredible stories about real people that lead us on a fascinating-sometimes sad, sometimes exhilarating- journey through each of the seasons.
Spring, summer, autumn, and winter provide a vivid backdrop as we meet intriguing people who inject wonder into our lives: a newspaper columnist tells of his fondness for Elysian, a tiny town in southern Minnesota; a grandson remembers life with his grandparents; a young farmer recalls the devotion of a mother to her daughter; and a popular professor of astronomy at the University of Minnesota tells an incredible story about the Star of Bethlehem.
These and other powerful stories provide the backdrop for much of Larson's writing during more than thirty years as a journalist. Through these amazing accounts, Larson believes that you, too, will be convinced of the magic all around us.
