Love books by Beverly Lewis

I had this book, let someone borrow it & it never was returned, I enjoyed it so much that I wanted it myself.

EXCELLENT AFFORDABLE GIFT BOOK FOR SOMEONE IN NEED OF HOPE & ENCOURAGEMENT

If you want to help someone in need READ THIS FIRST. If you have a need, READ THIS REVIEW THROUGH. WHO WOULD READ THIS BOOK? ? ? ? Someone who faces the death of a friend, family member, or even themselves. Let's face it, death is a struggle on the emotions, especially if it is connected to someone loved. This is such a story of that kind of love. Yet it offers HOPE. Also, someone who faces a serious illness themselves. Those who have been there, know of the pain and loneliness, not to mention, the anxiety in the risk of loosing contact with their family. This small, easily read book, takes a look as serious illness and how it touches the ill person, a mate, children, and even friends and family. It's not a lecture, but compassion in story form. Beverly Lewis is a seasoned author, noted for her many Amish stories. Becky, the child telling the story, is of a Mennonite family and reaches out with a commitment, a pact, with God that turns out to be almost a pact with the Devil, instead. Can she fulfill her own self-imposed sacrifice to save her mother? It is a touching story, "a shadow of what truly happened inside my young heart", according to the written testimony of the author. If you know of someone who is or has faced illness, death, or other human suffering, this is a small book that would be welcome to the inner needs of that person. You better buy one for yourself at the same time, because if you read it first, you will not want to give it away. A TOP-NOTCH story by a gifted and beautiful lady of words.

The Sunroom and God's healing grace

The Sunroom is a bit different from the many Beverly Lewis books I have read. This is a sensitive story about a beautiful Spiritual Healing told as only Beverly Lewis can, with warmth and grace.

An emotional story

I found this book to take you through emotions. If you love to feel what your reading, then this is the book for you. I felt with Becky through every step. This book was so good, didn't want to put it down. Took me about a week to read the story!

A precious story with a surprising ending...

Beverly Lewis is an extremely gifted "Christian" writer, obviously focusing her talents on conveying messages in wholesome, respectful manners. This is a beautiful yet heart-wrenching story of a young girl's struggle with life, death, and change. There are many lessons about love, trust, and faith to be learned in reading this simple yet elegant acccount. You will weep, then rejoice in the final chapters. I highly recommend this book to anyone with a heart.
