Summary: A Book of Love and Inspiration for All Ages
Review: A Grandparent's Gift of Love is a beautifully written book about love and is an inspiration to all. This book is for anyone who remembers relationships they have had with grandparents and anyone who wished they knew their grandparents. Once you pick up this book it is difficult to put it down. Immediately you become a part of all the stories and picture them as though you were there. What I especially like about this book is that you can pick it up and read a section and then continue to read another book if you so desire. This is the kind of book you can skip around and read at your leisure although I doubt you will want to put it down once you have begun. I can't wait for Edward Fays' next book.

Summary: A truly touching book
Review: From beginning to end, this book was one that I could not put down. The introduction to the book is deeply touching and really gives an insight to the author and how this book of grandparent stories came to be. The stories made me both smile and cry. I was very close to my grandmother and miss her very much. There were many times while reading the book that I was reminded of her incredible love and generosity. I would recommend this book very highly.

Summary: A True Pleasure
Review: I met the author, Edward Fays, at one of his book signings and have also seen him on a good morning show in Texas. At his book signing, I was enthralled with his compassion, intensity, and sincerity, as well as his persistence in getting this book published. The book itself is utterly fantastic and I highly recommend it as a gift for yourself or for anyone whom you care about. The only time I put the book down was when I was forced to wipe the tears from my eyes, as I read a myriad of touching, heartwarming, and inspiring stories. The piece on Chester the shinelologist is particularly moving and one that burns in my memory. Bravo! I wish this author the best, and congratulate him and those around him who helped make this book successful - especially his two brothers whom I had the pleasure to meet at his book signing. I am thankful for the opportunity to read this book and share it with my loved ones. I hope to meet Edward Fays again and to read his next work...

Summary: Heartwarming Stories for all ages!
Review: This book grabbed me instantly when I read the introduction and how the book came to be written. The author has the ability to make the reader believe he/she is right there in the moment, looking through the eyes of the people in the story.
The detailed description of people, voices and surroundings truly put the reader within the story, whether you want to be there or not.

This is a great book for people of any age eager to learn, be entertained and inspired. I never knew my grandparents so I didn't have the benefit of learning from them but the people I read about in this book shared a lot about life and what I may encounter in the future.

The author presents a fine collection of stories inspired by a diverse group of people, both young and old alike.

This book truly touched me from start to finish and I can easily recommend it to others.

Summary: Simultaneously gripping & heartwarming
Review: This book just bursts with chronicles that truly warm the heart. I opened the book to simply leaf through it and found myself unable to put the book down. The messages conveyed in this collection of stories are pleasurable for anyone that has experienced unconditional love, not just grandparents.

It is a rarity to see a negative experience turn into something so positive. I am sorry for the circumstances that brought this book to fruition; however, I have much admiration for the author as a human being because I find it an amazing feat that he created something so inspiring from something so tragic. Truly Uplifting!!

Summary: Simultaneously gripping & heartwarming
Review: This is a book that hooks you right from the very vivid
introduction. The personal trauma encountered by the
author & his fiancee was the motivating force behind the
creation of this unique book. The remarkable diversity
of the stories with a seemingly unending cast
of very real characters brought me to the point where
I could not wait to get to the next tale!

I wholeheartedly recommend this book to people of all ages.
