About this ebook
This is my first published work and I am so grateful to God that he has given me the opportunity to reach a very special audience- the children. It is with them in mind that I have written this little story about a boy whose dreams are not much different than a lot of younger children in one way or another. My story of glory and fame could, in fact, be the dream of older folks as well. God is still at work, though, and his ways, in the end, are best, and we need to seek Him out for the true paths of our life. He is always there for us, and, as this story reveals, it is usually someone else who has to show us that He is there. I hope you enjoy this story as much as I enjoyed writing it.
