Legends of the Donut Shop

By Terry Overton

Description:

At seventeen years of age, Wes Williams is injured in a head-on collision and nearly loses his life. Wes does not know if he will live or die. In a mysterious near-death experience, he travels back in time to his earlier years and the time he spent with his grandfather and his old buddies at the Donut Shop. The humorous gang of old veterans, and one retired sheriff, retell their stories once again. This time, Wes understands the meaning of each story.

This is a book of second chances, life lessons, and forgiveness. Wes's life is changed forever and he begins a new chapter in his life.

Book Takeaway:

Based on true story telling, and my own near-death experience, this story is one of learning the important things in life including God, faith, and family.

Why the author wrote this book:

This is a tribute to my late father and his "Donut Shop Buddies" who wanted younger kids and teens to know why they gather together most mornings of the week.
