5.0 out of 5 stars The book creates a hunger for more., September 25, 1998

Yvonne Copeland Steward (evon4529@aol.com) (Maryland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Poems That Touch the Heart (Hardcover)

The poems and stories in the book are just as relevant and touching today as they were 30 years ago when my father purchased a copy for me. Most of the poems have been read many times by me and shared with others. I have many favorites, but the most precious to me is "The Touch of the Master's Hand" and the story of the little girl in heaven who's tears keep putting the candle out. This is my 5th purchase of the book. Lent copies never seem to return. I have given it as gifts also. Thank you for making it available still.
