Customer Reviews

Great book for older siblings

This book was given to me before the birth of my second child. We have two boys, even though the pictures are of a little girl the concept is good for him. Our youngest is almost 2 and our oldest is now 3 and he still loves for me to read this book to him. I just change the words around so the baby isn't in my "tummy" any more. This is a very simple way of explaining that the new baby will not take an older child's place in mommies heart.

Wonderful

This is a wonderful book. The narrator/mother tells how God builds a room in her heart for each member of the family. A room is being built for the expected baby just like one was built for the older child. The room is full of the love the mother holds for that child. I cry everytime I read my daughter this book! The illustrations are of a girl though so I would not get this book for a boy.

A Rare Treasure

Author Beverly Evans has given us a rare treasure. Her first book, "The Room In My Heart," is a lyrical, soul-stirring paean to the inviolable love between a mother and her children. Evans, herself the mother of three, has fashioned a tender, faith-based parable about the challenges faced by an expectant mom who must reassure her firstborn of her permanent place in Mommy's heart. Superbly illustrated by Christopher Nick, this beautiful edition will be embraced by future generations of moms and kids as a testament to the eternal power of maternal and spiritual love.

Beautifully Illustrated

The Room in My Heart is a great book to share with children in preparation for new arrivals. The illustrations are beautifully illustrated and entertaining to look at.
