Great country book

A great book with suprising stories from the best country singers. It is a great book, very inspirational stories just one problem, wish they had more stories because they run out quickly, and your left wanting more.

The book shines

What a great job Julie Clay did writing this touching book. Even though the book is about "Stars" you can relate to their stories of childhood days. The way Julie tells their stories, you can picture them in your mind like you are right there. The illustrations in the book are wonderful. I hope Julie will do another one of these type books in the near future.

Finally - a book the whole family can enjoy!

What a joy to have this collection in our home! We promote reading with all of our three children although it is sometimes hard to find material that they will all enjoy. This is it. The Stars That Shine is a beautifully written and illustrated collection of true stories retold to us in an eloquent fashion. From Bugger Red to little Mae, these stories will warm your heart and remind you both of your childhood memories and of the importance in creating positive memories for your own children. It's a 'must have' addition to any family library.
