Book excerpt: Gleaned from everyday, real-life events, More Dory's Stories presents a collection of thirty-three inspirational narratives. In this, her second compilation, author D.J. DeSai covers a plethora of subjects-including car and horse racing, animals, school tales, frightening encounters, shocking dilemmas, and delightful surprises. In the story "Demolition Derby Race" DeSai describes the time her father, Amos, entered the family's pristine, candy-apple red, four-door Dodge into the local demolition derby. "No Sure Winner" tells how twelve-year-old D.J. learned a hard lesson about money and gambling. And "Saved by the Hood Ornament" narrates thirteen-year-old D.J.'s experience being hit by a car. From heartwarming to heartbreaking, More Dory's Stories represent a lifetime of down-to-earth lessons learned-some difficult, some unpleasant, and others that are simply fun. The stories reveal the works of God and serve to communicate that life is full of adventure and opportunities for personal and spiritual growth.
