If you're looking for something to read while you're laying by the pool this summer...this IS the book everyone is talking about. "Heaven is for Real" is a book based on a child's experience and detailed child's perspective of Heaven. Lets face it, no matter your religious background, no matter if you're a "believer" or not...it's human nature to be curious of what happens when one dies. Here you have a great, easy read on what a very young Colton experienced as he spent 3 minutes among the Heavens. You'll find yourself reading the book cover to cover in one day...and maybe getting a little teary eyed when you get to the illustration of what Colton believes to be an accurate picture of Christ himself painted by young prodigy Akiane Kramarik. In this book, Colton describes Angels, John the Baptist, a Sister ;whom he never knew existed (his mother miscarried before he was born) and his Grandfather whom he had no prior knowledge of his appearance yet accurately points him out in a photo as a young man. Colton even briefly acknowledges the existence of Satan, gets denied a song request for "We will rock You" and describes a fleet of protective angels who guard armed with swords. I highly recommend this read... as you just wont be able to put it down.
