Reaches for new understanding for those who are different. June 10, 1998
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
The Silent One by Joy Cowley is a book that will touch your heart and help you gain a new understanding for those individuals who are different than you. Jonasi, a young islander had waited for the day when he would be allowed to go with the men of the village to hunt the wild pigs. When the day arrived Jonasi was all but accepted. The Silent One is captivating. To anybody who has ever been lonely and shut outside from the world around them, this book will reach you. Throughout the story you will cheer for Jonasi and pray for ! his well-being and safety. You will encourage his friendship with the white turtle and somehow write the ending of the story before you finish the book. Don't be surprised if you find yourself writing the same words the author did. For somehow we are all connected and want the same things for not only Jonasi, but for ourselves. The Silent One has my highest recommendations for any reader and especially the one who has once had a lonely heart yearning for a friendship that would take them away from one world into a better one. END
