4.0

SYNOPSIS:
Most books do not begun at the end, but "the five people you meet in heaven" is no ordinary book. It begins with Eddie's last day on earth, he clocks in at work, rides some of the attractions, makes pipe cleaner animals for the children, and then before you know it, its time for Eddie to die. A ride called "Freddy's free fall" collapses on Eddie as he is trying to save a small child. He awakes in heaven where he finds out that their are five people waiting to tell him why his life turned out to be the way it was. The five people chosen are the five people that made the biggest impact in your life. Who will Eddie's five people be? Did Eddie save the child?

REVIEW:
This book was very touching and it told a wonderful story about Eddie. With each lesson Eddie learned it was a lesson the reader could learn as well. This book had a wonderful moral, it taught me that everyone plays an important role in the world whether we acknowledge it or not. Although the book was very intriguing and moving, there were some parts that made me doze off so for that I give "the five people you meet in heaven" By: Mitch Albom 4 out of 5 stars.

AGE RATING AND RECOMMENDED TO:
This book doesn't really have curse words but it does contain violence and some pretty brutal scenes so keep that in mind if your buying this book for a child. I recommend this book to those who ever feel like they play no important role in life, remember that you are important.
