That Summer

A young boy's summer begins like every other summer . . . but everything changes when his family finds out that his younger brother, Joey, is dying. Tony Johnston's poignant words and Barry Moser's intimate pictures invite us to share the experience of that summer—a season of family, of life, and of love.
