This needs to be a motion picture

My favorite from this book: ‘He recognises you,’ she [Rosie] whispered. ‘I think he’s older than me,’ said Stephen wonderingly. ‘Look at him, Rosie. Look at that child and tell me he doesn’t know everything in the universe.’ Rosie glanced up at the huge stars that were appearing overhead. ‘Well he did just get here from there.’ I’ve had that same belief for quite some time. I believe that babies come straight from Heaven and know of all the beautiful things there. That is the reason God doesn’t allow them language or memories until they are older. God wants us to want to be good and do good things and make it to Heaven after our time is up. God has given us free will and the choice to make it to His kingdom. Anyhow, enough of MY beliefs and this book isn’t full of “God talk”, after all. It is full of love and awful real life happenings, but there are also great things that come out of the bad. I want these 3 books to be made into a movie. This series is one of the very few I’d like to see in motion picture. Yep, they’re really that good. Stephen and Rosie are just about to lose their home (actually, it’s still considered her aunt Lilian’s home) when the two decide to take a trip to Africa because a girl he knows is about to have a baby. Rosie and Stephen were asked to be it’s Godparents. Well, something terrible happens while they’re there and although something amazing happens out of this tragedy, Rosie and Stephen struggle throughout the rest of the book…that is until the last chapters. I’m not spoiling it! I love the real vintage candy shop, Rosie, Stephen, Apostil, Lilian, Moray, and even Pamela! Pamela is a bloody cow (say that in a British accent), but she does change - somewhat - and her change benefits Stephen and Rosie. Great read! Where’s book 4?! Guess I’ll start a new series now. I am beginning one by Cindy Bell. It’s the Dune House Cozy Mystery series. There are approximately 24 books in the series and each book is less than 200 pages. They’re also all free through Kindle Unlimited!
