Anna’s Healing

Anna’s Healing is a marvelous story of courage, faith, and hope. Vannetta Chapman does an outstanding job of making this story real. The characters are believable and likable and their faith in God is evident throughout. The tension in the story keeps the reader turning the pages, wondering what is going to happen next. And when the story is completed, readers may still have questions about what happened to Anna but one thing is sure when one encounters the Holy God—one comes away forever changed.

Do you believe in miracles? I do, and this book is a very good example of how we should put our trust and have deep faith in God.

I really loved this story and the characters. This is one of those books that when you start reading you do not want to put it down till you finish it.

This is such a sweet story. Vannetta Chapman does a wonderful job of weaving together a story that will stay with me for a long time. It didn’t take me long to fall in love with the realistic characters in this story. My heart was aching for Anna and her struggles of living in a wheelchair at such a young age. One of the things that stood out to me in the story was the way Ms. Chapman brings out the fact that difficult situations strengthens our walk with God, and that our lives can have meaning, even when living with disabilities. And that sometimes its in our darkest moments and most difficult situations that we can see God working the most.

The story has captured the Amish in beautiful detail. The author is well versed in the Amish and her descriptions are so precise that you can visualize the community and the people as though you are there. I loved the way the author uses the Amish dialect and has helped me to learn a few words. The characters are warm and caring. They have a strong faith. I was surprised that Amish use tractors now for transportation, but with the authors in-depth knowledge of them, I always learn something new while reading her books. I found the book to be very emotional and so well written that I finished it in a few hours. There are a few surprises in the book, which I wasn’t expecting. Thank you for a book that captures the lives of the Amish with a warmth and loving attention to detail. As you read the book, don’t overlook the mention of an organization that helps children called, The Linus Project.

Overall the book is captivating, emotional, hopeful, and above all filled with love and faith.

Anna’s Healing is the perfect read for Christmas time. Anna believes her life is pretty much over after a storm leaves her a paraplegic. Her grandmother never gives up hope and is not surprised when the miracle happens.

This story will make you believe in miracles. Great job Vannetta Chapman!
