This book was the best I have ever read! I feel it should be required reading to our children at a young age to help better understand that everyone's hearts are the same regardless of color, religion, occupation, or upbringing. The other important factor is having a faith in something bigger and better. I loved how August (Queen Latifah) portrayed the true human spirit. The wailing wall provided an important outlet for suffering and letting go. I am passing this book along to my daughter and sister. I was sad when it ended and will be reading the author's other books. I'm taking an entire box of kleenex to the movie.
