[Following is a volunteer review of "The Bell Maker" by Chris Bowen.]
I really enjoyed reading this book. Took only a day! The author writes his words so nice. I was able to visualize how his grandpa and his bond was like. I will rate this 4 out of 4.
The book is about a person living in the city and his grandpa "passed away". He didn't feel any mourning because he felt his grandpa was still present. He just was unsure due to not seeing his grandpa as much as he used to due to a busy life. He randomly receives a call from a stranger. He meets up with the stranger and the stranger gives him an envelope from his grandpa. The grandpa writes to his grandson "find the shovel". The grandson goes to his grandpa's cabin where it once was and starts looking for the shovel. Once he found the shovel, he proceeded to dig to find empty jars. He finally dug up a jar which had a letter inside. The grandfather wrote to him about being in a village where the villagers would go to thd church when a light, small bell would make noise. The villagers and his father believed it was a sign from God even if was something simple like sharing crayons. The grandpa explained that he was a bell maker and would make bells for the church and people who lived in the village. He also explained how he had to leave the village due to their leader wanting changes. He felt like the leader wanted to control the village with the church. The leader commands the grandpa to melt the bells that he made for the villagers to make a huge, heavy bell. He became to see that changed the villagers point of view. The grandpa had his grandson look for the bell so he can carry on his traditions.
