May’s Boy & the Sequel

[Ldshap]

On the heels of the Sunday, 4/10/22, Roundtable, during which the inspirational book entitled “May’s Boy” was mentioned, I purchased a copy and have been hardly able to put it down! It is such an utterly uplifting, true story of boundless Mother-love reflected by May, and her constant prayers for her foster son, Leslie, which eventually brought out his musical genius. May’s incredible example of unselfed love, blended with discipline, is so needed today. I’m sharing this gem of a find with others, as it is such a blessing to read. I just discovered several You Tube videos of Leslie performing, including one with his rendition of “The Lord’s Prayer,” with May singing along in the background, which is very moving. And, it turns out there is a sequel to the original book, entitled “May’s Boy – the Rest of the Story,” in case anyone else is interested. I can’t wait to read it. I am always so grateful for the books and/or movies that are mentioned at Plainfield Roundtables and/or Bible Studies. During another Roundtable some time ago, the set of 12 books written by a Christian Scientist, Olive Beaupre Miller, and called “My Book House,” was shared. Having no children of my own, I appreciated a good recommendation for my great nieces/nephews, and was thrilled to find a set in good condition to share with them. Thank you!
