Flowers for Travis

By Frona Lewis

Lilly Harper is different than most young women her age. While other women are having babies she is making dolls. When her friends Tyler and Lucy are killed Lilly moves out to the farm to take care of their daughter and Lucy's mama. Lilly uses the money she makes from selling her dolls to buy necessities until Tyler's brother, Travis can be located. Travis Addison had not been home in six years when he felt a sudden urge to return. Expecting a joyous homecoming he was not prepared for what awaited him. Instead of his brother greeting him, he was met by a young woman, a niece, his brother's mother-in-law, and a young Negro man. Suddenly, his joy turned to sorrow. But with this new family and strength from the Lord he soon realizes his sorrow has turned to joy.

Flowers for Travis

A very good book. I would recommend it to young and old alike. It is a good, clean, romantic story that shows how God has a plan for all of us.

Flowers for Travis

This first effort is a gentle read. Suitable for adolescents as well as adult readers, Ms. Lewis entangles us immediately into the lives of her well-defined characters. I found myself caring about what happened next and hated to have it end. I particularly enjoyed the Christian focus which was laid-back but constant. I look forward to reading more of Ms. Lewis' books.

Wonderful Story and Characters

I was immediately absorbed in the lives of Lilly, Rose, Travis and Clarence. Lilly is able to reach everyone with innocence and compassion--a woman, yet still with the refreshing energy and naivety of a young girl. A touching and interesting story which has thread through the entire book love, compassion, kindness and Christianity. A great story and characters!
