Once Upon a Summer

Seasons of the Heart, Book 1

Best-selling author of Too Long a Stranger and Julia's Last Hope, Janette Oke is loved for her inspirational novels. In Once Upon a Summer, Oke weaves the tender tale of 12-year-old, Joshua, who has been raised by his 18-year-old aunt and their grandparents. He has grown accustomed to their close-knit family, but that is all about to change when Joshua's aunt considers marriage. Johnny Heller touchingly narrates the trials of faith this family must face.©2004 Phillip B. Kerr (P)2004 Recorded Books, LLC

Very enjoyable!

I loved the combination of humor and sadness and joy and basically just life brought to life.

great book!

the storyline was interesting & even some historical too. i also enjoyed the aspect of how someone can struggle trusting the Lord Jesus Christ & then finally trusting the Good Lord!

Hard to stay interested

Clean story and well-written, but rather boring and hard to keep my interest. however, I gave it a fairly High rating because it is a strong Christian moral story

Good coming of age story!

This is a great coming of age story where the protagonist also struggles to understand his faith. A great story reminding us that God is good. I also liked the narrators voice and performance.

What’s not to love

This was def a warm feel good story. Super great narrations also. Looking forward to the next one
