Book Description

There are many kinds of "smart" and many kinds of "wise."

“A slice of life from the 1960s. You will not be able to put this refreshingly entertaining book down.” — Sid Roth, Host, It's Supernatural! Television

The Upper Zoo tells a story that has not yet been told; that of a twelve year old Jewish boy in the 1960s who is impacted by the life and love of an autistic child with a firm commitment to Jesus. After being placed in a class for under-achievers, Jonathan finds his life changed forever. The book takes an unusual approach, revealing a world of dysfunctional pain and spiritual triumph through the eyes of a twelve-year old boy. Through surprising twists and turns, Jonathan uncovers secrets that will drastically affect his life and the lives of those closest to him.

No one who reads The Upper Zoo will be able to put it down—it is an inspirational and poignant novel.
