Project 9:09
Some say it's better to see once than to hear a hundred times. Jamison Diver knows that this is true.
The boy discovers photography thanks to his mom. She taught Jay to understand the difference between a regular snapshot and a...
work of art, as they looked at iconic black and white photographs together.
And now, two years after his mother's death, eleventh grader Jamison, his father, and younger sister seem to be coping with their loss, but each one is doing it alone, in their own way. Jay is anxious that the memory of his mom is slipping away, as he nearly forgot her birthday. Then he picks up the Nikon his mom gave him and starts photographing ordinary people on the street—at the same time and in the same place, first for a school project, and then just for himself. By focusing the lens on random passersby, Jamison gradually changes his view of the world and finally returns to life.
This book is a thoughtful exploration of how to find oneself, how to cope with grief through art, and to realize the role that family, friends, and even strangers on the street can play in the healing process. It offers readers hope and joy in the possibility of sharing their vision of the world with others.
