Book Overview

When she was about to turn five, a little girl named Rae Hansen invited Richard Bach to her birthday party. Though deserts, storms, mountains, and a thousand miles separated them, Rae was confident that her friend would appear. There's No Such Place As Far Away chronicles the exhilarating spiritual journey that delivered Rae's anxiously awaited guest to her side on that special day--and tells of the powerful and enduring gift that would keep him forever close to her heart. Written with the same elegant simplicity that made Jonathan Livingston Seagull a bestselling phenomenon, There's No Such Place As Far Away has touched the hearts of thousands of readers since its first publication in 1979. Richard Bach's inspiring, now-classic tale is a profound reminder that miles cannot truly separate us from friends...that those we love are always with us--every moment of the infinite celebration we call life. From the Trade Paperback edition. This description may be from another edition of this product.

FRIENDSHIP HAS NO DISTANCE

A friend of mine gave me this book as a present many years ago and I believe it is wonderful. It was my first Bach's book and I think it is my favorite (followed by "Illusions") from his collection. No doubts that I love Bach's writings!!! This is a very short, kind, and sweet story, written on beautiful color paintings. It surely might represent an enormous impact on anybody's life, as it did on mine. Little Rae celebrates...

A wonderful affirmation of life and love!

My oldest sister sent me this book for my first birthday away from home and family. I read the book and loved it, and put it away for a few years. I found the book again years later and reread it. I loved it even more. I have found that I get something different out of it with each subsequent reading. It is about life, and death, about hope and love. It is a spiritual affirmation about how we endure, and that love truly...

Pure and Simple

Bach has defined the meaning of the words "pure" and "simple" in what is marketed as a childrens book. I read this book and it brought tears to my eyes. I read it to my wife and 14 tear old daughter and it held no meaning for to them. Bach has laid a foundation for thought using very simple language that grows and develops with in a mind that is open and willing to see. If you are "ground bound" with no desire to think of...

El libro me ayudó a crecer internamente.

Aprendí que realmente no estamos lejos de nadie, pues viajamos en el corazón de las personas que amamos. Además los dibujos del libro ayudan a inspirarnos, por ejemplo, el dibujo del colibrí es hermosísimo.

This book belongs on every bookshelf

This is one of those rare books that has a timeless message and a simple beauty which belie its brevity. You can read this book in ten minutes. And, you can re-read it a hundred times and feel differently about it each time. Consider it the abridged Jonathon Livingston Seagull, but don't think of it as leaving out anything of importance. I particularly like this book because, in a few minutes, it helps me remember some...
