Jimmy (novel)

Once you look at the world through Jimmy's eyes, you'll never see it the same again. Jimmy's world is a place where a boy can grow to be a man, even if he's "special." Where angels hover, mostly unseen. Where danger can happen, and hearts can falter but love is never wasted. From best-selling author Robert Whitlow comes a poignant tale of innocence and courage in the tradition of Huckleberry Finn and To Kill A Mockingbird . ** Jimmy Mitchell knows he's different from the other teenagers in the little town of Piney Grove, Georgia. He's what people call "slow," which means he doesn't always understand what he sees and hears. But Jimmy sees and hears a lot, even the occasional "Watcher" (his mama calls them angels). And Jimmy remembers what he sees and hears with uncanny accuracy - which is why his lawyer father asks him to testify as a defense witness in a criminal trial. Jimmy Mitchell is considered "slow", but he hears and sees "watchers" (his mama calls them angels) and remembers everything he sees and hears from them with complete accuracy, which is why his lawyer father asks him to testify at a criminal trial
