The Dreaming of Aloysius by Louis Lippa Book PDF Summary
"Aloysius wants to sing with his grandmother in the church choir - but he can't carry a tune! When Ali asks her why he can't sing, she tells him that singing is a gift from God, so Ali decidees to search for God to ask for the "gift". In this search he meets unusual characters, among them: Virgil, an Indian taxi driver; a rollerblading girl with orange hair who tries to teach him to sing like Elvis; an Italian boatman; two eccentric sisters who run a homeless shelter; a penniless man who thinks he's Humphrey Bogart; and a weeping bride who wants to sing a song about a rattlesnake at her wedding. Ali's odyssey leads him to big truths about the world. Back at home, he wonders if one of those strange people could have been God in disguise. When he sings a song about a rabbit, he sings well - not as well as others - but not too badly. Satisfied at last, he thanks God and goes to sleep." -- Back cover
