The Instrument Maker and the Mandolin [Large Print]

By Colleen James

In the heart of a small, charming village lives a group of makers who create magnificent things and have extraordinary one-on-one relationships with some real-life objects One of those makers is Theo, an instrument maker and talented musician, who one day finishes creating a mandolin he names Mandy with the sole intention of playing a song on her strings that he has composed specifically for her.

The evening Theo creates her, however, is the same night that she is connived into running away with a handsome stranger, leaving the life Theo could have given her and any sense of purpose behind. Now far from the instrument maker's shop, Mandy soon realizes that this handsome stranger has lied to her as she is forced into a life of hardship at the hands of his daughter and wife. Despite Mandy's pressing problems, she continues to think fondly of the instrument maker and what her life might have been like with him. Will she ever see Theo again? And will she ever discover the purpose for which she has been made?

Join Mandy as she discovers that second chances really do exist and that it is never too late to experience true redemption, restoration, and a deep sense of purpose in the hands of the Maker.

The Instrument Maker and the Mandolin is a heartwarming tale that will resonate with children and parents alike as it powerfully reminds them that they have a Maker that loves them and seeks them out, ultimately offering them redemption, restoration, and a magnificent sense of purpose as an instrument in His hands.
