4.0 out of 5 stars A book about forgiveness, love, and determination, August 24, 2006

By	itsjustme (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gianna (Living Books) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book doesn't contain the best writing I've ever seen, but it still tells the story of a remarkable young woman. Obviously, the abortion doctor's name could not be used for legal reasons, but the documents that came to Gianna's adoptive mother, combined with the "from the horse's mouth" information from Gianna's birth mother are all the evidence that a reasonable person could expect to find in a situation such as this.

But Gianna's story isn't just about whether abortion is the killing of a human being or not; a great deal of her story is about forgiveness, love, and determination.

Gianna is an inspiration because she's a survivor, because she's not afraid to speak her mind, and because she "walks the walk," in addition to "talking the talk."

Definitely worth reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it in less then 12 hours, May 26, 2003

By	Jonnah Schmidt (Bend, Or United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gianna (Living Books) (Mass Market Paperback)

Once I opened this book up I could not put it down. After reading the story of Gianna I was not only amazed by her and her upbringing, but I needed more. I did lots of research on her and her story and also on others.
This is a good book and I do believe that it should be a must read for high school.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a must read for Pro-life and Pro-choicers..., January 2, 2001

By	Brandy Fisher (Chico,Ca) - See all my reviews

I could not put this book down,I read the whole thing in 3 hours. This girl has gone through so much in her life,and it is scary to think that people do this to their children everyday,they are so misinformed,read this girl's story and see what kind of impact a woman's so called choice,has on her unborn child. I recommend this to anyone.
