Dandelion Summer (Blue Sky Hill Series) Review"Dandelion Summer" by Lisa Wingate is an extraordinarily moving and inspirational book. To those who followed early launches from Cape Canaveral during America's unmanned and manned moon missions, her book brings back many exciting memories. Memories like the Surveyor Spacecraft was launched to the moon on Memorial Day 1966. The Spacecraft successfully soft-landed and transmitted back thousands of pictures. The first American Spacecraft to do so.
One of the characters in the book, Norman, a retired engineer had worked for Hughes on the Surveyor Project. Norman has just about given up. He lives alone and has heart problems. His daughter hires a young girl, Epiphany, to fix Norman's meals and help with the house work. He doesn't want anyone else in his house and devises ways to get her to leave. She needs the money and is as tenacious as Norman, so she stays.
Over time they work together to try to solve Norman's mystery. He relates many of his experiences at Cape Canaveral to Epiphany.
Dandelion Summer has many inspirational messages: "We were young then, certain of our own importance. Convinced that our presence in the world, that our work, was destined to change it."
"So much of life can pass without a thought of where the journey might end."
The book also gives the reader an update on Dell Jordan, the young girl from Tending Roses.
The Conversation Guide in the back of the book is filled with helpful information on America's early Cape Canaveral launches including the Surveyor Program. Additionally really good suggestions for building positive relationships between fathers and daughters are also included.
Dandelion Summer trips many memories and let's us relive some remarkable moments in America's early space exploration.
The first two chapters of Dandelion Summer can be found on her lisawingate website.
Dandelion Summer is a remarkable and exciting book. It is off the charts! In my opinion, it is a best seller and will be an extraordinary movie! I highly recommend Dandelion Summer!
Please note: Dandelion Summer is special for me. I worked for Hughes Aircraft on the Surveyor Project both in California and Cape Canaveral. I was there on Memorial Day 1966 when Surveyor was launched to the moon. Some of my Cape experiences are in Dandelion Summer. My thanks to Lisa Wingate for writing this wonderful book!
EdDandelion Summer (Blue Sky Hill Series) OverviewAll of her life, Epiphany Salerno has been tossed like a dandelion seed on the wind. Now, with the death of Mrs. Lora-the family friend who took Epie into her home-the sixteen-year-old must move to Dallas to live with her indifferent mother and new stepfather. Trapped on the low-rent side of Blue Sky Hill, the half-Italian and half-African-American Epie doesn't fit in-and soon finds herself on the wrong side of the law. To make restitution, she's sent to work in another place she's not wanted: a home on the upscale streets of the The Hill. When J. Norman Alvord learns that his daughter has hired a teenager to stay with him in the afternoons, he's determined to nix the arrangement. Widowed and suffering from heart trouble, Norman wants to be left alone. But in Epie's presence, Norman finds a mystery. Deep in his mind lie memories of another house, another life, and a young black woman, a housekeeper, who saved him... As summer comes to Blue Sky Hill, two residents from different worlds will journey through a turbulent past and find that with an unexpected road trip through sleepy Southern towns come a life-changing friendship...and clues to a family secret hidden for a lifetime.
