The Call of the Loon Series

These four books are for readers, young or old, who love stories that remind them of their own lives. A kid. A dog. Family. Friendships. Heartbreaks and setbacks. Adventures and discoveries. And through it all, the people, places, faith, experiences, and hard-won lessons that help make us who we are.

Four Calls.
One Remarkable
Life.

Follow a boy and his sled dog through two remarkable decades of adventure, courage, discovery, and purpose. Each book stands alone. Together, they tell the story of one ordinary life shaped by extraordinary people.

“We don’t discover the meaning of our lives by looking ahead. We discover it by remembering where we’ve been.”

A note from Jerre Blodgett...

There comes a time in life when many of us begin looking backward, not with regret, but with gratitude.

We begin to see that our lives were shaped by countless ordinary moments and extraordinary people who quietly helped make us who we are.

That’s what these books are about.

I wrote them first for my children and grandchildren. My family encouraged me to share them with you.

My hope is simple. That somewhere in these pages you’ll smile, remember, and perhaps begin seeing your own life as the remarkable story it has always been. If so, and you want to become part of our Story Sharing Community, follow the link below.
