i really want to watch the 180 pages books very soon!
last words!
ladies and Gentlemen......pls order this album ASAP! u must won't regret at all! trust me!

As many people I just bought the Miracle box set because I'm a Celine "hard core" fan. I must confess I never heard of Anne Geddes before but I'm glad I was able to enjoy her incredible talent as a photographer, looking at these beautiful pictures so full of tenderness. There is not much that I can say about Celine in this new album, her marvelous voice says it all (as always.) My 2 favorites, "Miracle" and "If I could" they made me stop for a minute and think about how much my Mother has loved me and how much I owe her. Thank you Mom.
If you are sensitive enough you'll feel the love in Celine's voice and it will make you feel good even if you are crying for the emotion. CD and book won't dissapoint you.
note:
For a fan, I think this is the best format out of the 3, because you get all the Celine pictures out of the book, the CD and the DVD.

If you love the photographs of Anne Geddes, I'd recommend buying the larger 180 page book. The small 60 page booklet is only a teaser. Either you love her photos (in which case you'll want the larger book) or you only like her photos (in which case, the booklet won't do much for you, and you might as well just buy the CD). I love her photos, and having seen the booklet, then went out and bought the larger 180 page book (which also comes with a CD), and now I have 2 CDs.

I had hoped the DVD might focus on how Geddes took the photos, but alas, it was a very high level overview. It focused mainly on how Geddes & Dion met, discussions around how the concept for the album/book evolved and some cute stories about all the babies that peed on Dion during the shoots.

Overall, this would make a nice gift, but if you can afford it, I'd recommend getting the larger book instead.

I was so amazed with the box set packaging. Upon opening the box set, I realized that there's no running times indicated for the DVD, and I subsequently disappointed with the length of this "Making of Miracle" DVD (not even 20 minutes long). The widely advertised 60 pages booklet which was included in this limited edition had merely a few of Anne Geddes's images. The last disappointment is that I have no idea who decided to select "Beautiful Boy" as the first single. I really don't find this song appealing, no matter how amazing Celine's voice is. In the US, during the first week of airplay, it failed to enter into the top 30 AC chart. In my opinion, the title track - Miracle is a much more appropriate choice to become her first single of this album. I was also trying to check out the 180 pages coffee table book in my local bookstore during the first week of release, two of the biggest local chains do not yet carry this title. Having said all these, however, I would still recommend everyone to buy this album because you will definitely be able to discover many soothing AC types of music to go well with the upcoming holiday season. Afterall, it's your choice whether to get this limited edition, or just the regular CD edition.

This truly is one of Celine's best. A must for any fan of Celine's. Great gift for anyone expecting a child.

I gave this to a friend who recently became a mom (by way of adoption). She plays it for her little guy after he has had his bath, he loves it, and so does she...

Si eres fan de Celine Dion no debes dejar de tener esto en tu colección!!

This is simply the best for a new mom, and the pics are beautiful with music by Celine that will amaze. My neice just had a new baby girl, and she loved this gift I gave her.Because ALL Babies are truly a miracle.

Just got the special edition boxed set. Wonderfull cd and dvd. cant wait to run out and get the book that goes along with it. some great songs along with some standards done in a diffrent way

I am wondering WHEN this plague will be over....
and WHEN we'll be set free to listen to real music...
