Not only did I enjoy this book, but so did my daughter, and the residents at the assisted living facility I work in. I have now read the book three times; Once to myself, outloud to my daughter, and to an entranced audience of a dozen senior citizens. We all give it five stars.The author paints a picture of heavenly delight without being critical or using any scare tactics. For being a religious subject, it is handled with such delicacy that even nonbelievers will enjoy the stories. It answers many questions children have about heaven with such simple answers. From now until eternity I know this will be how I will picture heaven in my mind's-eye, and a delightful picture that is.Some of the words are large and gave me an opportunity to increase my 9 year old's vocabulary. However the line of the story is very easy to follow. The elders I read to appreciated the fact that it was easy to follow but did not belittle their intelligence.All of us hope that a multitude of more stories will follow these. It leaves you wanting to know more.The world would be a better place if everyone would read this and truly believe that good deeds are rewarded with pennies in heaven.Malinda Terry Camille Terry Seniors at Freedom Plaza
