(Review of 6th edition) A wonderful book, I don't think I ever realized just how important reading aloud to your kids really was! This book has got me really excited to help my kids fall in love with reading...I think this book should be required reading for parents and teachers everywhere! I think I found the next book I'm going to buy my friends who find themselves new parents. Thanks to the last half of this book being a listing of great books to read to kids, I ‘ve got a list of about 20 books I'm going out to find!
This book was my “red pill”. I've never been able to look at Christianity the same way after reading this book. The second one was even crazier and I had to put it up for a while, because it was rocking my world way too much. If you are brave, and not afraid for your beliefs to be challenged, examined, tested, then you have GOT to read this book. If not, take the blue pill and pretend nothing ever happened!
This book was great, but it took me a while to read, because there is so much to think about in each chapter, I had to take time to let each one sink in. A very hopeful book that clearly communicates how a new world can be possible.... I'd recommend it to anyone, but you have to be ready for a pretty deep read!
One of my absolute favorite books from when I was in elementary school. Years later, when my parents got divorced, the first house my mom, sister and I moved into we found a little toy lion on the ground, and at every house since then, that lion has sat outside my mom's door to her house, and that was inspired by this book. :)
Very helpful book! Although my daughter is a bit too young to figure out her love language, I was able to for sure figure out my son's, and the conscious effort I've made to love him “his” way has made a difference in his overall demeanor and actions! I'm surprised! I would recommend this to anyone who has children or works with children, or have children in your family!
