Customer Reviews

Barn is a book about what actually unites people.

Barn by Debby Atwell is about a barn but tells us about our sense of continuity, what we value, what spiritual and basic forces bring us together. The paintings are like the flicks of life and lifetimes going by and give us a space and time to view it all. Good for kids but it's in my adult collection too.

Barn will touch your heart!

Thank you Debbie Atwell for this special book. I have always loved barns but now we can see how barns love us back.The history of "Barn" is fascinating and the telling from Barns' perspective is terrific! I found this book at my local library but love it so much I'm purchasing it for my collection.I would encourage all readers, young and young at heart to take a look at this exceptional work.
