Heaven is for Real

Does the title of this post sound familiar?  Have you read the book?

If not, I'm here to recommend it to you.  It only took me a short afternoon, and I'm glad I made the time.

In case you've been living under a rock, this is the story of almost-four-year-old Colton Burpo's visit to heaven during an emergency surgery.  It's told by his father, a preacher from a small town in Nebraska, and - whether you believe in the subject matter or not - it has a way of tugging on the ol' heart strings.  Especially if you're a parent.

I'd offer to lend you the copy I read, except for the fact that it isn't mine.  One of the surgical nurses at work brought it in for me, and it's already been returned to her.  Ask around, though.  Chances are good that someone you know owns a copy they'd be willing to share.
