REVIEW :
It is an interesting coloring book for something that looks like somebody just scribbled it.. One quote I found heartbreaking in the unintentional cruelty it spoke:
"After he was gone, my great aunt Mildred said, 'At least he was only adopted,' and my mom never forgave her."
Ten Minutes from Home is a lovely little book that will touch anyone who has ever felt loss.. In the preface he even hints at embarrassment over its overambitious breadth. They need to know how they have been bribed and manipulated by the health insurers to do what's best for the health insurance industry instead of what is best for the people who elected them to office.. It shows us (in a very hilarious way with a great plot-twist) that we need to love the moments that we live through (even if they are super embarrassing at the time) because we don't know what kind of door they might open. Othe
