Jason Scotto is at that difficult age when one foot is still stuck firmly in childhood, while the other already shoved out its big toe to test the tidal wave of those rapidly approaching teenage years. And, while Jason's bouts of pre-pubescent moodiness have convinced him that he is still being treated like a bottle sucking baby - his Mother is more than willing to cut her suddenly distant and introverted only child a reasonable amount of slack. Yet, nothing she does seems quite good enough, and Jason's contrary attitude finds him banished to his room, where he is fully determined to stay and sulk away the rest of the summer brooding over all the injustices that life seems to be currently flinging his way. That is, of course, till the absolute boredom of his now self-imposed exile compels Jason to devise a plan to make his own way out into the world beyond the limits of his immediate neighborhood. This decision leads Jason into a situation that not only puts his own life in jeopardy, but sets a series of events in motion which result in a story where the characters must navigate through the quickly evolving minefield of changes affecting their lives. Changes that ultimately turn everything Jason and three generations of his family have known about themselves completely upside down. From heartache to happiness, this suspense filled, family-in-crisis novel entitled Bringing Back Balloons is a place where emotions run strong throughout and which leaves the reader teetering on the edge at the conclusion of every chapter - all the way up to its surprise ending. It's a story about innocence; tragedy; love; mystery, and a miracle for one family, and when once that last page is turned - an underlying very powerful spiritual element weaving its way throughout the pages puts the reader in a place where hope springs eternal for all. Oh yes, and about those balloons - well, they miraculously move heaven and earth in the end!Bringing Back Balloons occupies that special niche that leaves the reader inspired; fulfilled, and quite teary-eyed. In today's world, with its daily litany of bad news impacting on so many aspects of our lives, Bringing Back Balloons provides a bright spot in the otherwise uncertain future many of us face. And, through the unfolding events surrounding Jason and the other members of the Scotto family, Bringing Back Balloons leaves the reader with the feeling that as long as we just keep trying and have faith in God and in our own efforts, there is certainly room for hope - that we can always wish for something wonderful to happen!
