“Leota’s Garden” by Francine Rivers

My most favorite book is ‘Leota’s Garden’ by Francine Rivers. It’s about the reconciliation between a grandmother and her two children through her granddaughter. Throw in a college student who is doing research in what is best for aging citizens, and you get a serious book of misunderstandings due to ’silent’ issues and comedy as the grandmother deals with the college student’s ideas. The intimacy between grandmother and granddaughter is so touching and heartwarming, as well as the relationship with the college student as the days go by. I definitely recommend it to anyone who has issues such as these, as communication is the key, along with prayer. I’ve already given a copy away to a friend with similar issues, praying they will be resolved and reconciled before my friend (85) passes away.
