Because the pillow that I dream on Is the threshold of a kingdom Is the threshold of a world where I'm with you. It's a dark and snowy secret And it has to do with heaven And what looks like sleep is really hot pursuit. I hold your picture in my mind It makes me warm when I am cold Gets me up and it makes me walk It makes me question what I'm told.

I bought this book to give to my neice who is going through typical thirteen year old problems at school and at home. I read some of the prayers before I gave it to her, and copied a few down like the one on page 178 about keeping your spirit strong and being more than what you seem. Then I gave her the book. A few weeks later I asked her how she liked it. She told me that when she read the prayers she felt "better" about herself. She reads a prayer every monring. My sister told me that she even takes the book with her to school. My sister bought a copy for herself and for me and our mother. Even though we live in different parts of the country, the book has brought us together because we talk about which prayer works best for us. I can't explain what these prayers do because i'm not good with words, and I've never done this before but I think it is because the prayers do something inside of you when you read them. THey work on your feelings so you have the confidence to change your life for the better. I think this book is a miracle.

This book should be on the bedside table of every teenage girl, no, every girl and woman in the country. It is the most valuable tool for building self esteem I have ever read. The poems are more than just lovely words. They actually make you feel good about yourself after reading them. Many make you cry. I bought this book first for a niece, then for myself even though I am a grown woman, and, finally two more copies for my two daughters who have gone off to college. And that's just for starters. I haven't felt this way about a book in a long time because it's more than a book, it's love. A mother's love for her daughter. The poems are very simple, written in ways that all of us understand and can relate to. Don't be put off by the simplicity, though, because the poems stay with you. They are inspirational because they touch deep inside to feelings you didn't remember you had. What else can I say except, Mothers, buy this book! And if you go to her web site, you can send her a description of a problem and she'll send you a prayer.
