Love to read stories of people who live a life of acceptance and conquering the life they been dealt. Also love any book about Alaska.

Lizze Miller on Goodreads wrote:

What a fun read. Particularly, the beginning. If you think you have a lot to do, then remember you are not a mom of 7, with one who has set backs, with a husband gone most of the time, in backwoods Alaska, in a single room cabin. Sure that wasn't the book's point, but still. Also what an encouragement to hold all of our children even the ones that doctors say "can't or won't" as able to love their siblings, enjoy the world and give their whole heart to God.
