Excellent Book!!

I bought this book at a used book store when I was in middle school. The book was so great that I read it at least once a year. Unfortunately, I lost my copy on a recent trip to Detroit. I am looking all over for it, so I can continue my annual read.

This is one story that deserves a sequel.

I bought this book when I was in jr. high school (1975). I still have this book and it is one of my favorites books that I keep going back to. Even now I wonder what ever happened to the family since the mid-1950's.

excellent & still timely. why isn't it available?

I have been looking for this book for years. I loaned my copy to someone and it was never returned. A pity because, I would like to share it with my stepchildren. I also located the Life article about the family, when I was in high school (25 years ago) at a local university library and found it excellent. Check the periodicals index from the year (listed in the book) that the Doss's were named family of the year. The story has always been inspirational, not just because of the love shown by the family towards each other, but because of the faith they showed in the face of seemingly insurmountable problems. Their faith in the rest of the world, to both help them, and eventually, accept them as they are, is an example we can all use.

What Happened Next ?

This book is the most amazing I have ever read. Unfortunately, I lost my copy a few years back when I lent it to a friend. I'd like to know what happened to the children once they were all grown up and what paths their lives had led them to.

I read this book 35 years ago and still have my copy. I bought it through the Scolastic Book Service, when I was in 5th grade. I logged on to this web site hoping to locate a copy for a wonderful friend who just completed the adoption process for the latest of six children. He and his wife didn't need the book for inspiration, but it would be the perfect compliment to their own life story. I'll keep searching.
