Turtletoes: Following the Steps of An Angel
Life seems to always provide the experiences and people we each need for our development and maturity, even happiness. Turtletoes is about one of those people, a daughter born with birth defects, whose influence helped raise the author, her father, to become a better man than he could have on his own. The book is about Tracy Purles, who was born with congenital heart disease and intellectual disability. Tracy endured being different. Physical, and mental challenges became a life-light for her family and friends. Her faith in God, determination to "be like everyone else," resilience, and enjoyment of life's little pleasures blessed the lives of her family and many others throughout her 20 years of life. This is not a book about tragedy, but about the value and beauty of life, no matter at what level it must be lived. It is a story about how one little girl meets the challenge of staying alive with such faith, hope, and grace that her influence invites Heaven's blessings for all. Her father writes that her passing from this life and going "Home" was one of the most spiritual experiences of his life. If you want an uplifting, "real world" experience that will touch your soul and invite you to thank God for your own life, read Turtletoes, Following the Steps of An Angel.
