Bret Lott Book Reviews Jewel by Bret Lott Fiction-Net Rating In the backwoods of Mississippi, Jewel and her husband Leston are blessed with five healthy children. All this changes with the birth of Brenda Kay in 1943. This is the story of a woman's devotion to a child who is both her burden and her blessing. While it is a powerful novel, especially in light of the fact that it takes place during a time when there was little support for families with special needs children, I still felt that there was something missing between the interaction of the various family members. Lott's character, Jewel, does leave us with a feeling of well-being because we all know that there are women out there who will rise to the challenges of life and we are all the better for their presence.
