We will discuss Life and Death and Giants by Ron R indo. \; Stop by the second-floor reference desk to pick up a copy fro m the library\, or download the audiobook or ebook from Libby.
\nGabriel Fisher was born an orphan\, weighing eighteen pounds and meas
uring twenty-seven inches long. No one in Lakota\, Wisconsin\, knows what
to make of him. He walks at eight months\, communicates with animals\, and
seems to possess extraordinary athletic talent. But when the older brothe
r who has been caring for him dies\, Gabriel is taken in by his devout Ami
sh grandparents who disapprove of all the attention and hide him away from
the English world.
But it's hard to hide forever when you're nearly
eight feet tall. At seventeen\, Gabriel is spotted working in a hay field
by the local football coach. What happens next transforms not only Gabriel
's life but the lives of everyone he meets.
Life\, and Death\, and Gi
ants is a moving story of faith\, family\, buried secrets\, and everyday m
iracles.
I look forward to discussing this title with you in the O rlady Room. \;
