There are many books out there about experiences of heaven and hell; some worth your time and some not I suppose. But Heaven is For Real, by Todd Burpo, is unique in that it is the experience of a small child - the author's 3 year old (nearly 4) son.
Colton is the son of a small town Nebraska pastor who during emergency surgery slips from consciousness and enters heaven. He survives his surgery and one day mentions that he was able to look down and see the doctor operating and his dad praying in a small room off by himself. Colton, over time, begins revealing more of his experiences of heaven.

Of course, as it would be with you and me, the family didn't know what to believe or if to believe at all. But then came the proof - Colton said he met his miscarried sister, whom no one had told him about, and also his great grandfather who died 30 years before Colton was born. Now they believed.
This book is sure to do one of several things for you; it may bring you peace about a lost child or loved one; it may bring revelation about what is to come; and it will surely give you a glimpse of the heart of God as it glorifies Christ throughout. I will not reveal anymore, but encourage you to find this book on your library shelf or at a bookstore. Be blessed.
