The Doll in McCalloway's Store

The Doll in McCalloway's Store by Kevin Krogh is the first novel by this LDS author.
Some interesting thoughts instore and glimpses of poetry. Focus is on finding faith and recognizing God in our lives.

The Willow Switch by Kevin Krogh ***

The Willow Switch by Kevin Krogh is his second book. The first one, I am currently reading is The Doll in McCallaway's Store. Kevin is not afraid to talk about indepth things close to his heart. To talk of faith, atheism, death, abuse, etc.
This book captured my fatigued attention more than the heavy backgrounded first novel for late night nursings. The story is of a young boy, abused by his "biological father" and his healing and love by another "father."
A book that was written with integrity about a topic obviously close to the author's heart yet with only references to vulgarity and violence.
