In this concluding volume of Hearts of the Children, we come full circle to bid good-bye to the Thomas family. The characters we met in Children of the Promise, and their posterity in this sequel series, have filled our hearts for years. As four young cousins – Gene, Kathy, Diane, and Hans – find their own paths in life, they are propelled forward by their strong heritage and the power of faith. Hearts of the Children honestly portrays the explosive problems of the sixties and early seventies, but this concluding volume offers the hope that families can hold together and that good people, with the resources the Lord offers, can not only survive but prosper.

By Pioneer Mamma (Sunny California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: So Much of Life Ahead (Hardcover)
Just like the first series Children of the Promise this second series Hearts of the Children are fantastic. Once again I am so excited to read each day, I love being part of the family.. I wish it went on and on thru the great grandchildren. Can't wait to read about Diane's life with her daughter.

I have almost all the Dean Hughes books and couldn't put them down once I started reading. When I finished the series I still wanted another book so I could keep track of the fictious families. Dean Hughes makes everything seem so real and some of the events and facts are true. You can't go wrong ordering any of Dean Hughes books, very enjoyable!

This review is from: So Much of Life Ahead (Hardcover)
This series really touched me. I found myself relating with so many of the storylines. I felt that he did a great job, writing and resarching this book. It did get kind of hard at the end, like it does with all series at the end because there are SO many different people to catch up with. I felt like, he did a great job tying up all the loose ends and.... well I did cry many times,there were just so many things that really touched me. I am really glad that I read this series and will continue to reccommend it to others.
