Customer Reviews

Such Encouragement!

I have read this wonderful book once, held on to every word, passed it on to another hurting parent, and am buying my second copy to soak in again. Kitti Murray's book is inspired and truly brings comfort and hope to parents whose kids are wandering.

Hope and Healing

So often we bombard ouselves with the question: "Where did I go wrong?" We see the question in the eyes of others, even our friends. Kitti Murray's book, A Long Way Off, does not ask the question, nor does it attempt to answer it. Instead, this is a book of healing and love. It helps us learn that there are other parents out there hurting the same way we are. Read the book for the hope but also read it for the beautiful writing style. Sometimes Murray's expressive, poetic writing is healing enough for the moment.
