Meet Joanne Vruno as she signs her book, Loon Child. "Loon Child is a sparkling debut for Joanne Vruno.  Alone on a nighttime fishing trip, Tom encounters a loon that mystically leads him to and abandoned child named Joseph. Taking the youngster into his home changes Tom's life, and touches the lives of his friends and neighbors, as well.  As Tom struggles to solve the mystery of the boy's abandonedment, he achieves a better appreciation of his own past, and the value of family.  Vruno does a wonderful job of introducing us to her characters, and making us care about them.  The mystery of Joseph's abandonment--and the loon's involvement--is deftly handled, leading to a satisfying, yet still somewhat mystical conclusion.  Loon Child is a heartwarming read that will appeal to all ages."
