"My name is Tom Trails, and . . . I live out by Fork Mountain." Then the walls seemed to close in, his mind became a desert whirlwind, and while the  class waited, Tom stood still, hopelessly unable to utter another word. "Take you seat and you can try again some other time," the teacher said. Some other time? Would there ever be a time that Tom Trails felt equal to his peers? That would take a miracle.

As a seven-year-old boy, George Durrant had several meaningful experiences when he was preparing for baptism. Each of these experiences helped him learn a different gospel principle that strengthened his testimony of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. Now as a grandfather, he has written and illustrated this delightful book about that year in his life. He says, “The stories in this book ring true, because they are true. They depict the tender feelings of a less-than-perfect seven-year-old who is growing emotionally in ways that will help him or her be prepared to be baptized at the age of eight.” Your seven-year-old can read these stories alone, or you can read the book aloud to your young one and discuss ideas that arise. This book will capture the interest and touch the heart of your beloved seven-year-old child who is preparing for baptism.

From prolific best-selling authors Susan Easton Black and George Durrant comes this gripping historical mystery. Stories that defined small American towns have been crushed by the weight of snippets of national news. But there is one story that has refused to succumb to big-city life. It is a story of mystery, romance, and insanity. The setting is the 1920s in Rooster Creek, Utah. The star is an unlikely, frightening man named Wesley Birch. No matter how the story of Wesley is told, it always begins the same way: in a hotel lobby.
