Title: Kingsbury handles two more tough topics masterfully
Review: Dealing with both Cystic Fibrosis and Downs Syndrome in an uplifting, decidedly Christian perspective marks this novel by Karen Kingsbury. Just when you think she has dealt with most of the controversial issues of life she finds two more to deal with in a way that can't help but touch every reader. Three years can sound a lot longer and a lot more hopeful when you think of it as "A Thousand Tomorrows". This book's main emphasis is the Downs Syndrome issue as seen because of Cody's brother introduced in "Beyond the Clouds". The other issue was probably addressed more in the earlier book but continues with some follow up in this the second of this series. I could have read "A Thousand Tomorrows" as a stand alone book, but was glad that I had found and read "Beyond the Clouds" first as it made the whole story much richer. Somehow, I had missed it when it first came out.
Is the review positive or negative?
