Just like EVERY book where someone claims some religious miracle - it turns out to be b.s. Stop supporting con people buy using tax dollars to buy this trash.

I read this book with an open mind and was curious about the fact that it was listed as a non-fiction. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and admit that it was a little slow in places. However, while one can think that a sick young boy simply…

When I first heard about Heaven Is For Real, I thought it would be two hundred pages of some author quoting passages from the bible and trying to strengthen my belief in Jesus, but then I saw it on a shelf in a store, read the first few…

You have to read through a lot of useless material to weed out anything of interest. Chapters devoted to going to a creepy insect show which is of no significance whatsoever. Very little substance when you consider that what this young…

Fake. So many holes in this story, I could not finish it. I went in with an open mind but wow...of course the father is a pastor! They should stop exploiting their child for money.
What an amazing book, made me think of the saying "and a little child will lead them" Cole's stories from his time in heaven are inspiring and amazing. This is a book that will touch your heart and soul.

This is an amazing book.How a three year old boy could give such wonderful descriptions of heaven which lined up with The Bible teachings is wonderful.
I cried a lot while reading this book. I now realise that I will have 5 grandchildren…

I've read this book a while ago now. I don't think this is for younger kids, because of some of the gruesome things in it, and I don't want to be negative about this book, but what if it all was a just a dream? A dream that showed exactly…
This is a really good book. I love this book. I have seen the movie. It's better than the movie big time. It's a sad story though but a good book to read and it has a happy ending at least.

This a very good book.
I feel like I am somehow connected to Heaven after reading this.
This story inspires, and I highly recommend that anyone who has any questions about Heaven, or God, or has doubts about Jesus' love, should read…
