Format:Paperback
I've never read a book that has been so heart warming, so thought provoking and provides such a simplistic and innocent view of life and love. I've also never read a book that has reduced me to tears.
The true story is fantastic and I defy you to read this and not be uplifted by Anna's persona. We're all nothing but dots at the end of the day (you'll have to read the book). I loved her impish nature and her questioning of when the River Thames becomes known as the River Thames. I don't know the answer to this question but I know the answer isn't 3.
If I achieved half the happiness in my life, as Anna did I'd be very pleased.
I don't believe in God but I do believe in love, which is all this book is about.

the fact that this is a true story really struck me, as i didn't know this until after i'd read it. this is an amazing book, really thought-provoking. alternately emotional, dramatic and hilarious. anna is such a complex character, you will want to read this again and again. this is a particularly cute edition, imported from america, which is a handy pocket-size.

This is a delightful book about an inquisitive little girl who saw a lot of things in a very different way than most of us are taught to see. It doesn't matter one bit if you agree with any of Anna's unusual points of view, it's just so refreshingly interesting. (Although you often end up thinking "Humm, I've never thought of it that way, but she does have a point!")
The author says he was lucky to have met Anna. I think she was lucky to have found him. He recognised something rare and beautiful in Anna, and had the intelligence to allow it to develop and grow.
This is classed as a spiritual book - which it no doubt is - but it is absolutely not a "preachy" book. Suitable for thinkers of all ages, children and adult alike.
