BUY THIS BOOK!:
I have given this book to almost everyone I know over the last 5 years. Everyone, of all ages, loves it! Almost everyone cries and hugs. It reaches into your heart and gives love on so many levels. Max Lucado explains God's love for all of us in such simple yet profound words. I gave this to a psychiatrist friend who says he reads it to all his patients. We all need to know God's love. BUY THIS BOOK!
Great book!:
This is one of my favorite childrens books! Great moral story about not caring what others think of you.
I read this to my children every night:
I agree with the other 150+ people who think this is an amazing book that every child and adult should own. It's definitely a "feel good" book. My children love it and so do I.

I have both the paperback and the hardcopy edition of this book. I recommend the hardback because of how much it is used. I have read this book to my nephews dozens of times. When the two of them leave I always tell them, "Remember, You are Special!" They came in from out-of-state last week and the first thing one of them said to me was, "You are special." The book is a good reminder for adults as well as youngsters!
