I wonder if Michael Landon, Jr. is as talented as his old man. The ratings of this book are very high, anyway.
The book may be religiously inclined or, at least, contain some religious references. I recognize the name of the publisher, Bethany House, as a company that publishes primarily, if not exclusively, for Christians.

Book Description (Amazon):
From the creator/director of the Love Comes Softly film series--
A story both bittersweet and heartwarming of a mother and her son...and of his unusual gift.
The decade of the 'thirties was a time of enormous uncertainty--for the world, for America, and in particular for one lonely, struggling mother and her disabled son. Their story is one of unyielding love and incredible sacrifices in the face of circumstances beyond belief.
But then The Gift appears...where has it come from, and why? How can a young boy who cannot communicate provide comfort and direction to seekers who learn of the special ability? Whatever the source, its presence brings a single shaft of light and hope to Mary and her beloved son, Jack....Will it be enough?
A novel filled with passion, with yearning...and with hope.
