Great guideance for parents presented in an easy, quick to read format ... each of the 7 chapters can stand alone, so even parents who read infrequently can get the benefit of Dr. Dobson's guidance in a way that's relevant and makes sense.

My 7 year old daughter has really enjoyed all of the books in the Alex series since we discovered them a few months ago. Definitely recommend to parents and kids who appreciate slice-of-life stories with solid values.

... for my life." This book was a key resource for my wife and I in making a leap of faith to change course in our lives. I don't know that a book alone can do that if you aren't already wrestling with such issues, but for those who are, I believe this book will be very helpful.

The first half is an allegory about challenges you face when face with following a dream; it is both funny and insightful as the story unfolds. The second half is more practicial information, including biblical examples of God-given dreams and how one often needs to step out in faith.

The most poweful concept for me that was reinforced -- and unpacked -- in this book is: often God doesn't take away fear in pursuing a dream, but instead asks you to trust Him for the strength you need.

A best seller for a reason, this book challenges you to live the life God intended for us all -- one filled with prayer and the assurance that God will answer our prayers (even if its not exactly how we think).
