Once upon a time there was a book written that presented something for everyone and for all age groups. "WITHIN JOT'S TRUNK" is that book. Children will take notice of James Oliver Thomas (Jot), a child that beat the odds and wrote poems and children's stories, those of nature and wildlife applying both intrigue and humor. Young people can apply Jot's choices both good and bad, to their own years as they struggle through adolescence and weigh the decisions they will make through their teens. Adults will discover nuggets of truth and be able to connect with Jot. It will encourage folks to analyze their own life journey and perhaps use such truths in their final chase towards eternity. May God bless each reader as HE has blessed me in the writing of "WITHIN JOT'S TRUNK"? Joe Knapp
