I picked up the book The One In A Million Boy by Monica Wood at the library. I was attracted to the cover. Turns out I got a marvelous little story about an 11 year old boy and an 104 year old woman who become friends. Both the boy and the woman are unusual people. Their friendship is genuine and each one of them sparks the other one into living life more fully.
