A wonderful read

This book was one of my mother's favorites growing up. She had shared her copy with each of us kids, but wanted us to have our own to cherish. We had looked through every book store, 2nd hand store and antique store. How delighted I was to find enough books and in very good condition for all of us. It's a quick read and one that can be read over and over. It has a very sweet message and what a difference a child can make.

fragile beginnings..........deep heartfelt message.....

i had this little book on my shelf for some time now. earlier this year i heard that B. J. Hoff was on a roll again and this time her new book was in some ways related to the "penny whistle". Well........ i read it in a quiet cozy setting and boom........ its over but it really has so much more. I am glad to say she now has out a new book called Distant music, alot of the same characters in it too. great! hope to read this one soon trudy

A book with spiritual truths

This book was a great blessing to me as I walked with the characters in their personal struggles. It has a ring of real life experiences in the struggles culminating with real victories. A lot of truth is packed into this small book.

A great little book!

This was a quick little book to stir your emotions.
