I'll Hold You While It Hurts / Milward, Arthur A / (PB/2006-2006/New/USED)

*Condition Note: Book is new.*

Get ready to wipe away the tears as you read these achingly beautiful stories of real children.
Meet Edith, who knew where to find the best entries for caterpillar races. And Wendy, the gardener's daughter, who longed to kiss the Nativity Babe. And Monika, whose sweet violin music was silenced by World War II.
Meet Esme Dainty, a grubby gypsy girl, whose beauty was waiting to be uncovered by a single act of kindness. And Pamela, who instinctively knew why Arthur hated school uniforms and would not sing the school song.
Meet shy Fiona of the violet eyes, who carried an unbelievable secret. And Chomba, the African houseboy, who countered a terrible tragedy with a heart overflowing with love. And Jeremy, the tough little Cockney boy, who made a surprisingly tender request.
Meet Valerie, Carolyn, Elizabeth, Joseph, Hermie, Miriam, Sally, Freddie - and Arthur's own young son, Adrian. All victims of Luekemic diseases.
And all, in their own way, exquisite examples of our need for a Savior who will hold us while it hurts.
