DILLON DILLON

Finally, on his tenth birthday, Dillon asks his parents why they named him Dillon Dillon. As he spends the summer on a New England island, Dillon must confront a part of his life that he never knew existed. He befriends a pair of loons and watches as they build a nest in his sneaker. This simple act helps him learn about family and how there are many definitions of this important word. Narrator Scott Shina is splendid as he recreates Dillon's words, thoughts, and flights of fancy. This beautiful story is perfect for people of all ages who are growing up. S.G.B.
