I read the book “Heaven Is For Real” because my husband read it and couldn’t stop talking about it. The true story is about a four year old boy Colton that dies and goes to heaven and then returns back. The story is written by his father Todd, as he records the events that Colton shares with him and his wife that happened when he was in heaven. The book was written over a period of a few years because as Colton would reveal what happened in heaven his mom or dad would write the stories down. They were careful not to question him about the events too much and just let the topics come up naturally. The book is easy to read and understand and I was able to read this book in 2 1/2 hours on a plane. It was one of those books that you just can’t put down and I enjoyed reading it. By reading this book and hearing from Colton his story it gave me a glimpse of what heaven will be like. We ended up purchasing several copies to share with friends and family.Read full review
This is an excellent book for ANYONE to read!!!! I am not a reader at ALL. In fact, my friend makes fun of me about how little I read! But this book I could not put down. It is fairly easy reading. Your jaw will drop throughout this whole book in amazement of this little boy's venture to Heaven and back. He describes what it is like to sit in the lap of Jesus! The whole book is amazing! My teenage friend told me about this book and now my mother is about to read it....EVERYBODY will love it!
Great testimony. Could provide real comfort to those who've lost children. Easy, worthwhile read!

It is a great book. I read it on my own and the participated in a group book review so we had others opinions on the book and were able to recall more of the details of Colten's visit to Heaven. It was a very inspiring book and made me long for my trip to Heaven. So glad I know that all the aborted and little children get to be there too.
