Maggie's Miracle by Karen Kingsbury

Hello! Today I am doing my book review on the book Maggie’s Miracle, by:
Karen Kingsbury. It is the second book in the Red Gloves Collection. The
other three are; Gideon’s Gift, Sarah’s Song, and Hannah’s Hope.
Megan remembers what her life was like before all the work, and
her son Jordan. The summer when she was 12, when she met Kade, and
when life started to mean something. Back then her name had been Maggie.
Maggie Howard. Maggie Howard believed in love, but Megan Write gave
up on it. When her husband died, their son Jordan was devastated. He had
started to slack in school, and was depressed. When Megan saw the article
for Healing Hearts, she knew it was right for her son.
Casey Cummins has just lost his wife and child from childbirth. Right after
the twin towers attack, to make matters worse. When he saw the Healing
Hearts program, he knew he needed to move on after his wife’s death.
Neither family thought they would find more than a friend. I loved these
books, and they are perfect to read during the holidays. Your emotions will
take flight with this heartwarming collection.

My favorite quote from this book is”But Maggie had never forgotten
something the boy told her that summer. Hold out for real love Maggie,
because real love never fails.”

“Karen Kingsbury is a great fiction writer and an even better person.
Wait until you read MAGGIE’S MIRACLE! You will be deeply touched.”
~Pat Williams, Sr. Vice President, Orlando Magic. From Publishers
Weekly “Kingsbury, whose novella Gideon's Gift struck a fervent chord
with readers last year, offers this second story in the "Red Gloves Series": as
one character declares to another, "Red is the color of giving."
Kirkus Reviews had nothing on this book.

Karen Kingsbury has also written Gideon’s Gift, Sarah’s Song, and
Hannah’s Hope, all of which are in the red gloves collection. She is the
author of the CBA #1 bestselling Reunion series. Recently Gideon’s Gift
has been made into a movie. Karen has won the 2009 Extraordinary Woman
of the Year award, the 2007 Evangelical Book of the Year, and the 2005
Gold Medallion Book Award. She has made both the USA Today and the

New York Times Bestseller Lists. The recommended age for this book is
13, but I enjoyed it a lot. It was by far one of my favorite books ever. It was
copyrighted in 2003. I would say it is for both boys and girls because it is
a good holiday read. All of the books take place during the Christmas time,
but you can read them any time of the year.
