But it isn?t long before Arthur realizes there?s more to the Junk Man than meets the eye, and the ?trash? he?s collecting is being transformed into something more precious than anyone could imagine. . . .Inspired by the work of folk artist James Hampton, Shelley Pearsall has crafted an affecting and redemptive novel about discovering what shines within us all, even when life seems full of darkness.?A moving exploration of how there is often so much more than meets the eye.? Booklist, starred review?There are so many things to love about this book. Remarkable.? The Christian Science Monitor
