Author:  Joann Vruno

Description: Tom Jackson lived his life grieving in seclusion after the loss of his wife, Katherine. His one reprieve was a nightly routine of fishing, heading out at sunset and trolling for muskies until dawn. That was until everything changed one night when he heard an unusual loon call. Never in a million years would he had guessed that mysterious event would lead him to a five-year-old boy named Joseph, abandoned in the wild lake area of northwestern Wisconsin.
    As a school principal and parent himself, Tom could not fathom how anyone could abandon this innocent child. He soon found himself working with his best friend, Roy Hutchinson, the Sawyer County sheriff to unfold Joseph's past, while unintentionally healing his own along the way.

Reviews: 

 “Joanne Vruno has created a story of love, spirit, magic, and mystery. Its setting is nature, and human nature is within it. For those of you who believe, you will know the manitou exists after reading Loon Child.”

                                                                                                                       - Don Shelby, journalist and author of The Season Never Ends

“Loon Child is a sparkling debut for Joanne Vruno. The story is deftly handled, leading to a satisfying, yet still somewhat mystical, conclusion. Loon Child is a heartwarming read that will appeal to all ages.”

—Steve Alcorn, American entrepreneur, engineer, inventor, author and teacher
