A Book of Love and Inspiration for All Ages
A Grandparent's Gift of Love is a beautifully written book about love and is an inspiration to all. This book is for anyone who remembers relationships they have had with grandparents and anyone who wished they knew their grandparents. Once you pick up this book it is difficult to put it down. Immediately you become a part of all the stories and picture them as though you were there. What I especially like about this book is that you can pick it up and read a section and then continue to read another book if you so desire. This is the kind of book you can skip around and read at your leisure although I doubt you will want to put it down once you have begun. I can't wait for Edward Fays' next book.

A True Pleasure
I met the author, Edward Fays, at one of his book signings and have also seen him on a good morning show in Texas. At his book signing, I was enthralled with his compassion, intensity, and sincerity, as well as his persistence in getting this book published. The book itself is utterly fantastic and I highly recommend it as a gift for yourself or for anyone whom you care about. The only time I put the book down was when I was forced to wipe the tears from my eyes, as I read a myriad of touching, heartwarming, and inspiring stories. The piece on Chester the shinelologist is particularly moving and one that burns in my memory. Bravo! I wish this author the best, and congratulate him and those around him who helped make this book successful - especially his two brothers whom I had the pleasure to meet at his book signing. I am thankful for the opportunity to read this book and share it with my loved ones. I hope to meet Edward Fays again and to read his next work...

Simultaneously gripping & heartwarming
This is a book that hooks you right from the very vivid
introduction. The personal trauma encountered by the
author & his fiancee was the motivating force behind the
creation of this unique book. The remarkable diversity
of the stories with a seemingly unending cast
of very real characters brought me to the point where
I could not wait to get to the next tale!I wholeheartedly recommend this book to people of all ages.
