It is a short read and while not a great book, is a heart-felt story. The Angel in this group is based on the Angel in Christmas Box book.It is a very touching story of family and strangers and what is really important in life. It does reflect Mormon religious beliefs, but does not try to evangelize. This book was given to me by Angel of Hope in my local area. Angel of Hope is a group that supports grieving parents in the loss of a child.
Mail. My package arrived in 5 shipping days via the U.S. I was very impressed with how fast my order arrived. I live in Minnesota and the package was shipped from Florida.
At any time, however, it is a wonderful reminder to invest time in the special people in our lives and to keep a grateful heart. His story line moves along briskly.
There is just enough of a supernatural element to create an air of mystery and expectation. With a few words he creates excellent images and characters.
This is a thoughtful and sensitive short story that highlights the most valuable gifts in our lives. Evans writes with simplicity for a wide audience.
A book like this should not be stored on a shelf but either read each December or passed along to new readers. It is an especially good book to accompany the Christmas holiday and could be enjoyed by the entire family.
Mr.
The story involves a young couple with a daugther who move into a mansion owned by Mary, an old lady. What's Mary's story.The secret is not a big surprise.
The story is easy to read and entertaining.This is not "the" greatest Christmas story in the world ,but it is enjoyible and short. There are magical, supernatural elements to the story.
This book is more of a long short story than a novel. The upstairs attic has some curious things ( a Christmas box and a cradle).
I felt good at the end of the tale. It could have been shorter.
The family share the house for a few weeks with Mary and become very attached to her.
I have, for 6 years, been giving this book to friends at Christmas. It is a quick and easy read also. When Richard Paul Evans writes a book, there is always someone you can relate to. Everyone always loves the story. Dont pass up this book. He has a gift for writing that places you emotionally in the book itself. The story is a touching story that makes you want to become a better parent, friend, spouse, person and human.
