Fervent wishes, confessions, confidences, praise, and thanks

The mustered letters in this book are wonderful. In fact, they are a great delight. This is what we need to see in today's children. All of them touched my heart with laughter but not just that. The questions, innocence, and wiseness of the children (all under ten) are dominant. It shows for once that children may know better than their elders (sometimes). Particularly one letter stays in my mind:Dear God,I wish that there wasn't no such thing of sin. I wish that there was not no such thing of war.Tim M. age 9 If only it were that simple. It makes one wish to never grow up. "Children's Letters to God" is splendid and is an inspiring gift for anyone who has had the pleasure of being in the presence of a child's smile.

Laughter through honesty

This book had me laughing out load on a bus to the point people must have thought I was crazy. The questions these children ask are truly the most cleaver and honest thoughts that seemingly only a child can think of! It will bring back your childhood and allow you to feel the pure wonder and discovery of your youth! A MUST READ...and a wonderful gift!

This is a must read for everyone.

This is a MUST READ for everyone who wants to tap into the pristine wonder of children. I always include this book as part of a baby shower gift for someone who is having her first child to let her know about the priceless joy they are about to experience. I can't think of any other book that forecasts that joy so accurately.

A heartwarming look into the hearts of children!

This book is a refreshing reminder of the simplistic mind of achild, as we read how these little ones ponder who God really is andhow He works. The questions posed and statements made by these children are heartwarming and often comical! I laughed through the whole book! A must read for a parent or teacher of children.

A Really enjoyable book. Brings a thousand smiles.

I found this book on accident and just had to get it. Each page brings a new smile at the innocence of young children and their ideals. A very good choice for any occasion as a gift or just to buy so when you are down to cheer you up.
