"Patsie McCandless is a glowing advertisement for the radiant magic in Becoming Jesse - Celebrating the Everyday Magic of Childhood, an inspiring novel with a very profound message, because it's really about becoming yourself." Jack Canfield, Chicken Soup for the Soul and The Success Principles. "A marvel! I loved the affirmation of the joy of living and acceptance of mortality." Dr. Dorothy Sved. M.D. "Put down your phone, turn off the television, and open this book. You'll return to the magic of your childhood." Anne Anthony, Author, The Collection - Flash Fiction for Flash Memory "Becoming Jesse is a creation of new and very rich words, a very imaginative way into magic and wonder." Mary Cullen, owner, Second Nest (Early Childhood Center) "Jesse is taking me back to my perception of life as a child. Complete trust in the good. I am taking it very slowly because I want to live his days with him." Don Zegel, Musician and Conductor "This book is sure to become a new classic. The characters come to life, like old friends you just can't wait to visit." Kat Mills, Montessori Language Teacher "Sometimes one comes across a book that truly uplifts our spirits. "Becoming Jesse" is such a work. 6 year-old Jesse's joy and imagination leap off the pages as we follow his adventures. His gentle spirit and loving nature bring happiness to all who share his midtown Manhattan apartment building in the mid-1950s." Suzanne Rostan, Historian "Oh, I don't want to ever finish Becoming Jesse! I could keep reading it forever and ever. Day after day, just like Jesse lives day-by-day in imagination and inspiration inside his wondrous 'glintaling' inner lights." Teresa Zeoli, Violist "Readers of all ages would enjoy this powerful, poignant story. I laughed and cried with its timeless message. Also, I highly recommend this book as a training tool for parents, grandparents, or anyone teaching young children because of all the practical tips and attitudes for dealing with problems and adversity." Bonnie Bruorton, Early Childhood Teacher
Synopsis
Re-ignite your magic in this historical-fiction novel, illuminating an orphaned boy, Jesse, full of comic charm and soul-lighting wisdom; raised by his wise and loving, Irish-gypsy grandmother, Dearie, in the1950s theater world of NYC. Reach across generations and nationalities as Jesse shines his magic light on all around him, especially himself., An enchanting, inspirational story set in 1950s New York City with Jesse, a 6 year-old, orphaned boy of comic charms and soul-lighting wisdom. He is raised by his beloved Irish gypsy grandmother, Dearie, who owns her own theater, and his uncle Conor, who is studying at the Actors Studio. They reside in a lively apartment building, where Jesse has friends, both young and old, in a melting pot of neighbors with the lingering accents of their old countries. Jesse loves to solve a puzzle, and he alights on a jig-saw of a mystery twisting around his other "disappeared" grandmother. It becomes his quest to find her, and with imagination and unflappable determination, his inborn magic touches everyone around him in many an adventure. Jesse has his ups and downs in curious riddles and emotional challenges, all swirling through a world of theater, music, classic literature and gypsy storytelling. His everyday magic is celebrated and guided by the wisdom and humor of his precious grandmother, Dearie, and the true meaning of love's blessings flows through Jesse's quest, finding its way into his joy and inner light. Becoming Jesse is entertainingly inventive and surprising, and is a delightful training tool for parents and grandparents - and anyone who loves a child. It is filled with everyday lessons, insights and attitudes for keeping the magic of childhood shining. We all want our magic back. Here is your chance. Waiting for you. Let Jesse help you re-ignite and revel in becoming your own magic. Light On!
