Patterns on the Wall

Things are not easy for Jared Austin, but with hard work and indomitable perseverance, he turns his life into something beautiful, just like the walls that he stencils. This historical fiction novel features fascinating character development, an engaging and unpredictable plot, and wonderful insights into life in New England during the early 1800s, including the "frozen year" of 1816. Elizabeth Yates has woven in moving messages of kindness, gratitude to God, faith, appreciation of nature, hard work, love of learning, self-improvement, optimism, humility, long-suffering, and patience.

"The best books are ones that not only entertain, but also teach you and inspire you. This book does just those things! You won't view your trials or your enemies the same after reading Patterns on the Wall!" - Jenny Phillips
