Review: Beautiful Story about Hope, Perseverance and Compassion - This story about how two lives intertwined is heartwarming. One perseveres patiently through great difficulties but never loses sight of what is important. The other, a child benefits from and appreciates the first character's perseverance and endurance. This is a beautiful story that teaches the value of persevering through trials, recovering from trials, and moving on to help others. I highly recommend this book for middle school to adult readers. It is very well written, easy to read, and absorbing. I enjoyed reading this book and I'm really glad for what I learned from it.
Review: Great story - Great read about a tough story. Well written
