Dr. Annie L Shaughnessy, Crofton, MD
Have you ever felt like you didn’t quite belong?
Merlin Buchwald was not good at farming like the rest of his family. No matter how hard he tried to fit in, he was good at one thing only: playing the violin. Nothing gave Merlin greater happiness than to lift the violin to his chin and gracefully slide the bow across the strings. But how could Merlin tell his family that he could never be truly happy as a farmer?
Annie Shaughnessy’s “Morning Glory and Music” follows the young cricket on his search for a new life and happiness. Traveling far away from his home and family, Merlin faces great obstacles and is forced to look inside to find the will and strength to go on.
Will Merlin truly find his place in the world? Find out in this exciting and heart-warming tale of discovery that will inspire and delight readers of all ages.
