"Heaven is for Real"

I read the best book this weekend - in four hours. It is called "Heaven is for Real" by Todd Burpo. This book is awesome! It is a true story about a little four year old boy that almost died of a ruptured appendix. After his surgery and recovery, he started talking to his parents about how he visited heaven. He told them what they were doing while he was in surgery. He told them all about his great-grandfather that he met in heaven, but didn't know anything about him before his surgery. He also told them about his sister he met in heaven - a baby that his mom miscarried, but never told the boy about.

This book will make you think, and make you truly believe that there is life after death. When it is told so innocently by a four year old with no misconceptions or reasons to lie - it is hard not to believe.
