Great Mother's Day Present
After seeing this book on "The View", I decided that I was going to buy it for my mother, mother-in-law, and stepmom. After seeing their reaction, I knew this book was golden. My mother-in-law has said this has been her favorite mother's day present in years. She spent the whole next weekend digging through photo albums and writing in the book. I decided to give this book to my own grandmother ...

I've read it over ten times
Since I first read this book over 15 years ago I've read the book over 10 times. I read it three times the first year. I felt it was an amazing story, very touching, and able to tug at me each time I read it. The strength and courage that the author had was amazing.

Great program, great ideas... not poltically motivated!
I've not only read several of the "Love and Logic" series of books, but was first introduced to Love and Logic as an elementary and middle school teacher in the 1990's. We found many valuable teaching methods to help us deal with many different situations that arise in the classroom. Later on, as a parent, my husband and I took some classes on "parenting with love and logic" and again found ...

wonderful legacy for whole family
This book is truly beautiful. It is manageable to complete and the prompts lead to the stories of real life. It is very upbeat. My mother completed the book some time ago. Sadly she passed away last month at the age of 91 years. She had 2 children, 6 grandchildren, most of whom are grown, and 5 great grandchildren. While my family has always enjoyed the book, we are especially grateful to have ...

I'm buying multiple copies!
I've never taken the time to review the many books I order, but I had to chime in about this one. I ordered it because it sounded like a terrific Christmas gift for my 19-month-old son to give his grandparents, and I'm thrilled. It's a beautiful book, and anyone who fills it out creates a family treasure to be passed down for generations. The book contains thoughtful and interesting questions ...

Urban Love Story
This Urban Loves Story was a definite one setting page turner. I was excited as well as surprise at how part one ended. Could hard wait to see if Norit Folkes could continue this story with the same exuberance. I would have to say that part two was just as stimulus!

This book should be rated with 10 stars!
I bought this book for my husband, and we just got it yesterday. At first he didnt even want to be bothered with the book, wouldnt even open it. But as a good wife I am, I nagged and nagged some more lol, finally he opened it up. Well, he never let it down until he had got to the last page of the book. I think I might have even saw a tear falling down his face. :) This is going to be a wonderful ...

The Fun About Being A Grandmother
This is a laugh-out-loud book but with capturing the deep emotins of becoming a grandmother at the same time. Ms Wyse has certainly captured the modern style of being a grandmother and made her come to life. I have given it to each of my friends as they announce they are going to be a grandmother.I also reread it from time to time just to see how I am doing as a grandmother and what might come ...

Great tool for those who need to have conversations between generations
As a pastor, I am always searching for resources that will stimulate conversations between generations, particularly in dealing with end of life issues. Taylor's book is an excellent tool for adult children to begin needed talks with aging parents. Plus it works in the opposite direction--a tool for aging parents to express their own concerns as they face the many unknowns of their future.

a book for grandmas that won't induce a diabetic coma!
I am a grandmother, but most books directed at me are sickly sweet and thus either are unreadable or make me feel as if I should immnediately don an apron and make some cookies and start patting someone short on the head. This book actually makes it cool to be a grandmother. It's very funny, and the advice could mean your daughter will start taking your calls again

a wonderful gift for a grandparent
I just got this book along with a Mothers Legacy, and a Fathers Legacy. I think these three books are the best things I have bought all year long. I just wished that my grandmother was alive to have done one of these for me. When we are young we do not understand how wonderful grandparents are, and all the information they carry in their minds. This book has a way of getting all of that ...
