A Wounded White Dove

Many years ago, an old woman delivered this message to Carl's mother on a dark, city street. Eight-year-old Carl and his seven brothers and sisters are mystified by this strange story. What is the importance of the wounded, white dove? How could a wounded white dove bring many blessings to such a large, deprived family? What hidden secrets must Carl uncover? Will Carl ever find the wounded white dove?Once again, Arthur Dale Likens weaves a beautiful story about an incredible, loving family living on a lonely, dusty road known as Anglin' Road. There are more struggles and adventures-blizzards, a possible murder, an abandoned tent, and Carl's beloved brother Glen's health is deteriorating. Friends-old and new-and loving relatives come to share in the laughter, the dancing, and the singing that echo across the valley.
