Well, you can't look inside...but I wanted a picture...HERE is the Amazon link to this book...
I am thrilled to say that this book is BACK IN PRINT!!! I bought about 15 copies when Elise was 2 because it had been taken completely out of print. I wanted to give it as gifts! I love this book. It is the story of Dale Evans and Roy Rogers' daughter, Robin, who had been born with Down Syndrome. They were advised to put her in an institution, but they chose to take her home and love her. This was during a time where the general acceptence of babies with special needs was nil. I loved Dale Evans and Roy Roger before, and when I discovered this fact and read this book, I loved them even more.
This is Robin's story, told from her perspective, from Heaven.

Sign me up! I adoredRoy and Dale long before I knew about this. Finding out just made them even more like heroes to me. They just don't make celebrities like they use to.
ReplyDeleteWonderful book! My mother frequently has me go research old book websites to find this for her to give away to folks who need it. I'm so happy it is back in print!
