Produktbeschreibung
Who is the Gray Heron? To Leroy Overstreet, he is an old friend. Throughout his life, Leroy has always craved a life of adventure. He has a constant need for movement, and during periods of stagnation, he struggles against the depression that inevitably seeps in. As he approaches retirement, Leroy resolves himself to settling down to a quieter way of life while helping his niece raise her two children, Lela and Rye. What he is not prepared for, however, is how the adventures in their young lives will affect his own. The waters of life move quickly, children become adults, and memories linger to cause aches for what once was. All the while, the Gray Heron is never far away, always returning to the creek behind Leroy's house. The bird is a constant and comforting presence for him as he struggles through cycles of despair and hope, and it acts as a reminder that there's a spirit guide in all of us.

Autorenporträt
John Wilde born in 1950 B.C. (Before Computers), and life was anything but typical. As a boy, his world was filled with constant change. His home served as a way-station for children waiting for adoption, and twenty-seven foster kids filtered in and out of his life as he grew up. With all their different struggles and hardships, those kids molded him into who he became and helped him understand why love is the greatest healer. Small but athletic, Wilde excelled in sports. College was a joy ride, but it still managed to endear him to reading. His studies prepared him for forty-four years in sales, and it was in those years that he developed a passion for writing.
