A gem and a masterpiece of a story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I read this book in manuscript form last Jan. and absolutely loved it!!! I read it to my husband in about 90 minutes or so and we both were crying at the end. It makes us realize how VERY important families are and should be. We need stories like this more. I love heartwarming stories like this and the story gives us so much to think about, as we both felt it is so life-affirming. This will make a great Christmas gift for all. We both highly recommend it. We have our own personally autographed copy and I will be spreading the word around for friends and family to buy it for Christmas gifts.

The James Miracle inspires hope and reiterates the power of family. The James Miracle had me hooked from the first paragraph. The perfect mix of humor and real-life challenges make the characters so real. I was able to directly relate to their feelings, challenges and success stories. The author touches an emotional chord and teaches the reader about the strength of a family and the amazing faith of a child. When I finished the book, I realized that I had experienced a whole range of emotion including laughter, sorrow, and hope. I would highly recommend this book to anyone.
The James Miracle really is one ...

The James Miracle is a small book, but a big story. I read it on a plane after a prolonged business trip away from my children, and was overwhelmed at the relevance it had to our modern life - and lifestyles that often separate us from our families and the beliefs and priorities that we used to think of as the fundamental building blocks of our lives - before we became busy. It was warm and sad and funny and wise. It made me cry and it made me laugh. But mostly, it gave me a renewed sense of what really matters in life - the things we leave behind that matter, and the things we leave behind that don't. The James Miracle reminds us to grab the spirit and celebrate the souls of all those we love and hold dear. Even through the veil of tears, it is and uplifting and joyful read.
