Customer Reviews

Compassionate accounts.

Patrick Malone and his fellow parishioners present eloquent accounts of personal family stories of love and loss. Their stories offer us compassionate insight into their experiences, as well as hope that we, too, could deal as gracefully given the same challenges. This book offers parents connectivity during times that could, instead, be isolating.

Spans many ages of parents and children

I love this book for its heartwarming stories of raising children. Many of the parents reflect back on thier own upgringing and realize parenting isn't as easy as thier parents made it appear. And the priest who did the opening chapter, had a great idea for mothers in the congreation to give the sermon on Mother's Day and fathers on Fathers Day.

Enlightens the heart and mind

Up All Night is a collection of amazing stories of faith, courage and love. This book offers insight for parents and anyone who wishes to share in the experiences of the 44 different contributing authors.
