Book Reviews of You Are Special (Max Lucado's Wemmicks)
Book Review: A Splendid Blending of Text and Illustration
Summary: 5 Stars
The text of this book reads so smooth, and the illustrations are aesthetically pleasing as well as sophisticated. Perhaps what is best though about this childrens book is that nowhere is the "G" word to be found (read: God), and so it is possible to take this book into the public schools and read it to school children (I'd only recommend it to grades K thru 2nd) where they can learn of God's love for them. This book is one of those rare books where the text is great, the illustrations are beautiful to look at and the message is inspirational.Book Review: true
Summary: 5 Stars
I went to my church's youth camp with other fourteen year old girls and one of my counselors brought the book and she read it out loud to us. Outside under a large open tent with real civilization so far away that I could just review my life and the times I've been the dotted puppet and the times I've let the stars go to my head. It brought me and many others to tears. That night was one of those experiences you never forget. I'm really excited about buying this book. It's so relevant to how we live that I intend to keep it forever.Book Review: Beautifully written tale.
Summary: 5 Stars
A friend gave me this book a few years ago when I was feeling down about myself. I cried throughout most of the book, it was so touching. Little Punchinello lives in a town of wooden people called "Wemmicks" where all those who are talented and/or beautiful get special stickers but those who aren't get gray dots. Unfortunately, Punchinello is in the latter category. Sad, he goes to visit his "maker" to find the answers of why some are special and some are not. A tale that people of all ages can relate to!Book Review: A wonderful book for all ages
Summary: 5 Stars
This book tells the most wonderful story of all ... that God loves us all, no matter what anyone elses' views of us may be because He is our Creator and created each and every one of us in His sight. This book is taylored towards young children, but it is wonderful for children of all ages ... from 2-102.
Max Lucado does an excpetional job of telling the story in a way that young children can relate, but even us adults can get something out of the story. A must have for your children's or your own library!
Book Review: A touching tale spoken from the heart
Summary: 5 Stars
An inspirational teacher read to me along with 25 otheraspiring student teachers this book to convey her feeling to ourclass. We all knew that she was very inspirational and we all wantedto be like her. She read us this book and we were truly touched. She compared our class as being so very special to her to that of the sad Wemmick and his creator. I bought the book to celebrate her contributions to us and I give it to very special people in my life. Thank you to Max Lucado for touching and linking our lives together.
