4.0 out of 5 stars
Undiscovered Treasure, August 10, 2004
This review is from: Celebrating the Inner Beauty of Woman (Hardcover)
Famous for her many western pioneering romances, Janette Oke's poetry has been almost eclipsed by her other work. Yet this is a warm-hearted delightful collection of verse and photography.
A perfect gift for a woman of any age, this book contains a treasure of little insights into life and parenting. The tasteful illustrations add to the richness and enhance the poetry.
Altogether a wonderful book.

This book is a perfect gift for Mother's Day., February 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Celebrating the Inner Beauty of Woman (Hardcover)
Janette Oke, a celebrated writer of fiction, takes us on a new journey in "Celebrating the Inner Beauty of Woman." In an age when women are scrambling in the race up the corporate ladder and competing in all professions, it is refreshing to view through Oke's eyes the softer, warmer, kinder, more spiritual side of women. The author shares writings about relationships between sisters, grandmother and grandchild, mother and child, and friends. Poignant illustrations throughout the book help bring the written words to life. The book will be a nostalgic journey for senior adult women. The words and the pictures are masterfully combined to touch the heart. This book is a perfect gift for Mother's Day or for any other occasion. Its beautiful, colorful pictures and its short reads make it ideal for your bedside or coffee table! (Mature Living, Nashville, TN, April 1999; reviewed by Mary Darby)
