Shelley Pearsall "The seventh most important thing".

The Seventh Most Important Thing by Shelley Pearsall, Paperback | Barnes & Noble(R)

Read it as a family and it was a pretty good book. If you're looking for something to pick up to read for either yourself or your family, highly recommend it.

I'll ruin the story line by mentioning it takes a non fictional character and puts him in a fictional story.

The man?

James Hampton.

I was amazed at the man's dedication to his faith in what he believed he was doing. I understand that there may be a fine line between dedication and insanity, but what this man did with trash he picked up off the streets was amazing IMO.

Just wished we read it all before our trip to DC. Next trip back we all agreed we would love to see this work of art in person. Never realized reading the book the man and his work really did exist.
