I don't entirely know what to think about this book. It was a really quick and simple read, it wasn't bad, it just felt a little weird. Like maybe I shouldn't be reading about something like this. It was interesting and kind of cool. I'm not sure I really enjoyed the scriptural references made in the book to prove whatever point he was trying to make that his son had reported seeing. While whatever descriptions the son made about Christ were cool and he firmly stood by what he saw even years later it sounds like, I don't know...Something just didn't sit right in me. I'm glad he didn't really report names of children as they didn't think to write them down at the time. That seems like it would've been taken a step too far. I did really enjoy the accounts of the boy seeing his great grandpa and his sister he never met as the mom had miscarried before he was even born. Those were kind of fun stories.

If you're looking for a quick feel good story, this would probably fit the bill.
