April 21, 2006 (Press Release) --
The Gifted Child is a magnificent display that delivers the inner workings of the life of a young boy named John as he grows...finding his way through puberty to (young)manhood. This novel, written by Tonie Short, definitely brings the reader back down to earth with its funny vibes, unique style, and serious tones. From the loss of a father to a strong mother, John manages to hold himself together in a world that proves to be more interested in the darkness of his tone than the genious within. From verbal taunts and falling in love, from fist fights to a bruised bottom, John in more exciting ways than just one, proves to the world that he is far more than the dumb dark child they want him to be!
This book is a breath of fresh air making way for all those who want and choose to read something different and new. This novel has proven its ability to take any reader to a place in time that is shared with a young boy named John and keep them captivated and waiting for the sequel! This work of art deserves a many five stars.
