Hey Charley by Tony Angelo

by Slippers Childrens Books Rating: 0.0

Hey Charley! Remember when we were kids and had no choice in anything that we wanted to do? Do you remember when you thought there was nothing good that could come out of those decisions made for us like moving to a new home far away from our friends or attending another school where you were the new kid on the block?

Well, welcome to Charley’s world! Suddenly it seems that his entire life is turned upside down. But instead of finding only the down side of change, Charley is reminded that there is a silver lining in almost everything if you have faith and simply believe!

Tony has woven an intricate story about a child’s worst fears from a brother attending college to his beloved dad getting a new job into something joyous. His use of vivid descriptions captures the angst of every child as they grow and learn to forge their own paths, even if those decisions can be painful at first.

Tony reminded me that even in our adult lives we must look past the worry and the fear of change and see the greater good and the wonderful treats that very well might be hidden around the corner. A wondrous book for all ages, it is meant to be read time and time again as a family, if only a simple reminder that love and faith conquers all.
