Customer Reviews

One of my daughter's favorites

This is one of my daughter's favorite books and has been for a long time. Our family is much like the one in the book. I'm so thankful to Roma Downey for writing it.

Gently touches wounded hearts

Roma Downey must draw from her own achings as a single mother when she writes this story. She lovingly shows how to wrap children in love when they are the most vulnerable. This story is valuable for all caring mothers and fathers, and reaches the vast majority of situations the children will encounter.

Modern Families

A beautiful and tender look into the "modern" structure of the family through the eyes of a child who realizes that a family doesn't require a particular "shape" or "number" to make it any more real. As a city librarian, I deeply appreciate an author sensitive enough to present a story capable of being read to ANY group of children without pushing political or "alternative lifestyles".
