A wonderful, charming little book. Each lesson can be read in only a few minutes and give you many things to think about. A few Biblical references, but it is not a heavy theological book. If, like me, It's a Wonderful Life is one of your favorite movies, you'll enjoy this book very much.

George and Mary had four kids, not three as the author of this book states. Also, I'm not so sure Zuzu's flower was made of paper. Why then would they put it in a glass of water? Overall, this book was a okay and I enjoyed the Biblical references to the lessons learned from the movie. However, I think there are a few inaccuracies about the movie itself. ( )
