Sweet story about how a woman changes lives with the loose change that her husband empties out of his pockets every night. Quick, satisfying read.

A wonderful Christmas story! It is about one of the so-called small things in life and what a difference it can make when someone uses it for something that counts. I most highly recommend this lovely tale to everyone to remember the true meaning of Christmas and Jesus' message as well as our purpose as Christians here on earth. It is a very small book, 150 pages, can be read in an hour but the moral of the story stays with you a lot longer.

This book was a very easy, light read. But the power of the story it told has stuck with me since I read the first chapter. There are so many women out there like this let's change some lives. This is the best book I have read in years!

This small book has a very large message.This is an inspirational book about how one woman was able to make many changes by collecting her husband's loose change. For such a small,short book there is a powerful message.
